The Bay Minette City Council took up a state grant on May 18 to fund a veterans' display marking America's 250th birthday this July 4. The award comes from Alabama's A250AL Semiquincentennial Community Grant program.
At its April 6 meeting, the City Council took up Resolution 0426-01, authorizing the city to apply to the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources for federal-origin GOMESA funds toward improvements at the Kids Park. The city received a $1 million GOMESA grant for its Nature Park Master Plan in September 2025.
Among the items on the City Council's May 4 agenda was Resolution 0426-09, which would approve an application for a 700 Specialty Retailer of Consumable Hemp Products License for Bay Minette Liquor Wine Cigar at 712 D'Olive Street.
