Resident asks council about using TIF funds for fire apparatus; alderman to consult mayor
Resident Bryton Simms raised a request with the Macon City Council asking about assistance from TIF (tax increment financing) funds to purchase fire apparatus. The transcript records Simms as presenting the inquiry but does not record additional details such as estimated cost or a departmental request.

Alderman Tom Long acknowledged the inquiry and said he wanted to speak with Mayor Frank Dunmire about the question; no formal motion or decision was recorded on the transcript. The item was left for follow-up rather than being scheduled for immediate action.
