The council cleared approvals that move a new commercial plaza and school-related sewer work forward, and paused a natural gas company’s requested rate increase so the city can study it and coordinate with other cities. They shifted city budget funds to support the Layden Senior Center and filled several board and commission seats. Council also asked staff to engage state legislators and the Texas Municipal League to explore legal authority to limit concentrations of investor-owned rental properties in certain residential areas, which would require state action before the city could implement such limits.
