At the May 18 Fort Payne City Council meeting, Council member John Smith suggested the city should give first responders a one-time bonus and proposed that the city name a street leading into the new school after the superintendent who managed its construction. The city attorney also gave an update on efforts to demolish the old DeKalb General Hospital. Smith said the city should dedicate the $1,063,000 in CARES Act money it has received toward $1,250 bonuses for full-time employees of the police, fire and E-911 departments and $625 for part-time employees of the same. “Our first responders worked through this every day, never had a day off,” Smith said. “We received updates about how many of them got COVID or had to quarantine. I’d like to take this first payment and reward them.”
