The new ordinance limits where predatory offenders may establish permanent residences near locations commonly used by children and other sensitive facilities. The refuse contract is expected to reduce residential rates beginning in 2027, although the current budget plan calls for holding rates steady while the Council considers how to use the savings during the 2027 budget process. Stormwater retrofit work will receive $30,000 in grant funding, split evenly between Phase 2 and Phase 3.
