Several streets are moving toward construction, including planned overlay work on Lincoln Avenue NW, 30th Street NW and Western Avenue. The overlay estimate exceeds the approved $400,000 budget, but the project is expected to rely primarily on the City’s Municipal State Aid account; a budget amendment may follow if a low bid is accepted. The proposed short-term-rental program would require licenses, life-safety compliance and lodging-tax collection, with the license fee to be discussed later.
