The Andalusia City Council on Tuesday approved an amended request for funds from Andalusia City Schools to complete a sidewalk and entrance project at Andalusia High School.

ACS has received a Transportation Alternatives (sidewalk) grant to improve pedestrian traffic on its campus. The school system will provide matching funds of 20 percent for the project, which was approved earlier this month.

However, Dr. Daniel Shakespeare, superintendent of education, amended that request so that the system can also update signage and enhance the front entrance to AHS. The amendment added $481,770 to the total request for the 2025-26 school year.

The funding is from an education sales tax approved in 2013.

The council also:

• Approved a special events retail alcohol application for Off the Trax, for a Crawfish Cookoff planned there on March 28, 2026.

• Took no action upon the first reading of an ordinance to surplus property owned by the City at 220, 222 and 224 South Cotton Street.
