Hendersonville Public Safety Committee 8/11/2026

The City of Hendersonville Public Safety Committee met on August 11, 2026, to discuss several agenda items including the approval of a resolution for the Parks Department to apply for a property conservation grant with PEP. The committee approved Resolution 2026-25 and recommended waiving the two-week rule for its consideration by the Board of Mayor and Aldermen (BOMA). Additionally, the committee discussed public safety concerns at the Start Now boat ramp area, including issues with misdemeanor activities. The Corps of Engineers offered to lease the property to the city to install a gate for the upper parking lot, which would remain open during boat ramp hours. Police chiefs reported on current patrol efforts and agreed to increase patrols as feasible, with plans to monitor the situation and revisit if necessary. No contract awards or procurement decisions were made during this meeting.
