What this means
The Civic Campus project is moving toward formal financing and development agreements, but the meeting did not approve final financing documents. Council also approved actions supporting three multifamily housing projects and other water, transportation, airport, and design contracts. A preliminary City Attorney’s Office proposal would reduce its budget by 17%, including two position reductions, which staff said could slow legal work for city departments.
