## Summary

The Black Mountain Town Council will convene a special meeting on February 25th to address two key items impacting the community. Primarily, they will consider a budget amendment for the Police Department, allowing them to reallocate donated funds towards community outreach and public relations initiatives, including a conference expected to generate revenue. Additionally, the council will discuss and vote on necessary short-term repairs to the concession stand at Veterans Park, ensuring it's ready for the upcoming baseball season.

A key decision will be whether to formally approve the Police Department's budget amendment, and a vote is expected on moving forward with the Veterans Park concession stand repairs. Town staff will present details on both items, and if needed, explore options for funding the concession stand repairs. 

Finally, a portion of the meeting will be held in closed session to discuss personnel matters related to a public employee. Interested residents can attend the meeting at Town Hall Council Chambers or view agenda materials and updates on the town's website.
