The Harriman City Council is set to convene for its first regular meeting of the month tonight, Tuesday, July 7, at 6:00 p.m. As the first of two scheduled sessions for July, the council faces a packed agenda featuring significant financial approvals, policy expansions, and logistical adjustments.

The council will review and potentially vote on several major pieces of city business, including:

• Major Grant Funding: Discussion and potential approval of a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) award totaling $553,304.89.

• Police Department Towing Policy: A proposed amendment to the Harriman Police Department’s towing policy. If approved, this will expand eligibility for the city’s approved towing rotation list to include qualified providers located within five miles of the city limits.

• Election Day Scheduling: The council will consider rescheduling the August 4th meeting to accommodate the upcoming Election Day.

• Intergovernmental & Lease Agreements: Votes are expected on an Interlocal Cooperation Agreement between the City of Harriman and Roane County, as well as a lease agreement extension with the Mid-East Community Action Agency.

Standard administrative updates will also be provided during the meeting, featuring reports from the Harriman Utility Board (HUB), the City Treasurer, and the City Attorney.

The meeting is open to the public for anyone wishing to attend in person. For residents preferring to watch remotely, the proceedings will be livestreamed on the City of Harriman’s official Facebook page starting at 6:00 p.m.
