Chickasaw Journal HOULKA – Aldermen approved the donation of sick pay to other employees and financing to purchase equipment for the sewer department at their November board meeting at City Hall. The city voted to allow two employees to donate sick days to a town worker recovering from an on-the-job injury and to hire a Ty Russell as a temporary work to fill in for the injured employee. “He replaces Tony Brasher, a full-time employee who recently sustained a severe foot injury,” said Houlka Town Clerk Janie Tutor.
