With the City of Lebanon and Wilson County struggling to find revenue, Lebanon City Council decided to start buying local at Tuesday night’s regular meeting.

Ward 6 Councilor Kathy Warmath brought up the point that the city was in the process of buying three pickup trucks for the gas and sewer departments. The bids that were to be accepted were from a dealership in Nashville.

Permobil, Inc., an international company that is the world’s leading manufacturer of custom-made powered wheelchairs, will build its new $12 million North American Operations Center in Lebanon on a 17-acre site located in Park 840.

Groundbreaking ceremonies for the project were held Tuesday at the site.
