Public Health Committee Meeting - November 5, 2026

The Williamson County Public Health Committee met on November 5, 2026, and unanimously approved Resolution 112612, authorizing the county mayor to execute agreements for projects recommended by the county opioid task force using national opioid settlement funds. The committee discussed the task force’s application review process, including subject-matter input from MTSU’s public health office; the transcript does not specify the individual projects or award amounts. The funding remains subject to full County Commission approval.

The committee also unanimously approved authorizing the mayor to execute an interlocal agreement with Williamson Health, the City of Spring Hill, and Murray County for emergency ambulance services, with the arrangement expected to begin January 1. Members discussed amounts of $750,000 and $1.5 million, including $1.5 million for July 1, 2027, through June 30, 2028, as well as a possible 3% annual fee increase subject to notice and a 1% monthly late-payment interest provision. Members raised questions about the agreement’s renewal, the hospital’s potential sale, and protections if ambulance operations transfer to another entity; county staff indicated they would review the relevant provisions before the subsequent Commission meeting.
