Your feedback helps us prioritize what to improve next.
The James Street property will not receive the requested change from residential to business zoning, so the proposed restaurant cannot proceed under that request. The towing and storage application was withdrawn in a way that prevents the same application from being brought back in its current form. The Council also directed several issues to committees, including police safety equipment, software products, golf-course finances, and the city auditor hiring process.
