Brenda Tuck, MCEDD
explained Amendment two to
the city council on Tuesday,
Oct. 16. She explained how
Amendment two is vital to
Alabamians keeping their jobs,
and growth. She explained that
Marengo County needed to do
their part and raise the $7,500
that was asked for the advertis-
ing campaign to pass the
amendment.
There was a motion to
donate the $1,000 by
Councilman Richard Lankster,
with a second by Councilman
Neal Jackson. The motion
passed with a unanimous vote.
Councilman Lankster
expressed his thoughts about
the amendment. "I think it's a
good thing to support. We are in
a win-win and other cities in
Marengo County have donated
their share."
Councilman Mike Carlisle
asked, "How soon will progress
be made if the amendment pass-
es?"
Tuck answered, "We won't
have any recruiting funds if it
doesn't pass. It's in our best
interest to make sure it passes."
Dem0polis IDB, Linden
IDB, and the city of Demopolis
have all donated $1,000. The
city of Thomaston has donated
$500. Marengo County
Commissioners were also
talked to regarding a donation.
In other city business, there
was a school board member
appointment. There was a 4-1
vote to appoint Robert Alston, a
Linden Police officer to the
board. Councilman Richard
Lankster voted for Judy
Compton.
Three seized vehicles from
2008 were declared surplus, so
there could be a sale. The funds
upon the sale will go into the
police drug fund.
After a 25 minute executive
session regarding personnel,
tfiere was news of a resignation.
Cheryl Hall, City of L'mden
Administrator gave her resigna-
tion on Tuesday, Oct. 16 at the
city council meeting.
Mayor Mitzi Gates and city
council members were sad-
dened by the news. The effec-
tive date of her resignation is set
for Friday, Nov. 2, 2012. The
council tried to negotiate Hall
as an interim administrator to
finish the current year, but no
decision was ngade.
H~ explaihed:thht she wants
to retire. She had plans to retire
last year, but gave herself an
extra year.
There was discussion over
the terms of'her resignation
with a motion to accept her res-
ignation with provisions. The
city will pay her vacation pay
over a ten week period in the
amount of $1,600. During that
time she will be able to keep her
city insurance. She will also
receive 25% of her accumula-
tive sick time. The city will also
pay for her schooling in May.
This will let her maintain her
court certification.
Hall said, "I enjoyed work-
ing with all of you and enjoyed
serving Linden for the last 17
and half years."
There will be a decision
regarding Hall staying on with-
in the next few weeks after the
new Mayor and council are
informed.

Linden senior quarterback
Anthony Robinson was named
to the Alabama High School
Athletic Association Spotlight
after Friday stellar performance
in a the Patriots 58-0 win over
county-tivak Marengo. Umden
coach Andro Williams said the
Patriots offense "begins and
ends with Anthony" and it sure
did Friday. Robinson threw five
touchdown passes and scored
on a 56-yard punt return.
Robinson completed 13-of-16
passes for 262 yards. Despite his
outstanding performance, top
honors in the AHSAA Spotlight
went to
Haleyville High School sen-
ior quarterback Tanner Ivey
who has seen some highs and
lows in his high prep football
career for the Lions.
As a sophomore starting
quarterback and linebacker, he
broke his hand in a game that
saw then-Fayette County head
coach Waldon Tucker become
the state's all-dine career wins
leader. As a junior, he was diag-
nosed with Type 1 diabetes, said
his dad Mike Ivey, and lost a lot
of weight as he continued to
play the dual role of quarterback
and linebacker.
This season, however, new
head coach Mike Heaton intro-
duced a new offensive scheme
that would spread the field and
allow Ivey and his teammates to
throw the football more. Heaton
also decided to take Ivey off his
linebacker post and use him
only when necessary on defense
as an additional defensive back.
Friday night that strategy
came to full fruition as Ney
completed 24-of-38 passes for
496 yards and six touchdowns
as the Lions beat Priceville 68-
37. Leading only 42-28 at the
half, Ivey and his teammates
outscored the Bulldogs 26-0 in
the third quarter before exiting
offense by completing 17-of-23
pass attempts for 327 yards and
five touchdowns. He also
rushed for another score.
In other top performances
reported last weekend:
M1TCH STULTS, HAMIL-
TON: The senior quarterback
was 13-of-14 passing for 263
yards and three touchdowns,
rushed for 45 yards and two
scores and added eight tackles
and two interceptions on
defense as the Aggies beat
Winfield 51-28. Stults returned
one of his picks for a touch-
down. With the performance, he
moves to within 126 yards of
the AHSAA career all-purpose
yardage record. Hamilton plays
at Winston County this Friday
night.
KRISTIAN JONES, HACK-
LEBURG: The Panthers' fresh-
man nmning back ran for 351
yards and four touchdowns on
26 carries in a 40-16 win over
Phillips.
NICK MULLENS, SPAIN
PARK: Completed 40-of-46
passes for 322 yards and three
touchdowns in a 34-13 win over
Oak Mountain. He had a string
of nine consecutive completions
and another string of 12 straight
completions. His 40 comple-
tions set a new Class 6A record
and ranks second all-time for all
AHSAA classes.

TA: The quarterback was 19-of-
25 passing for 308 yards with
four touchdowns - upping his

has 13 TD receptions on the sea-
son. Jalen Johnson also had five
receptions for 132 yards and
two scores to give him nine on
the game for good with 1:32 theyear.
remaining in the period. The
performance earned him the
AHSAA Prep Sprtfi~ht for
Week 7.
"Tanner was injured the week
before against Brooks," said
Heaton. "We had made up our
minds that we would spread the
field and throw a little more.
Tanner has worked so hard, is a
great leader and it all just kind of
came together. It was an incred-
ible performance by him and
our offense. He's a tough kid
and probably didn't throw for
500 yards in either of the two
previous seasons. He is now
104-of-169 on the year for
1,563 yards and 15 touchdowns.
He's only thrown four intercep-
tions."
The 496 yards passing ranks
ninth all-time and is the top sin-
gle-game performance in the
state this season. The record
(565 yards) was set by Chris
Smelley of American Christian
in the Class 1A semifinals in
2005. Seven other 500.yard plus

recorded in the AHSAA Record
Book.
