The South Main Street property can move forward with higher-density housing and related commercial uses, although one council member voted against each approval. Council supported eight transportation grant applications, but the minutes do not say whether funding has been awarded. It also adopted a policy and resolution on automatic license plate readers and changed drought rules so Harrisonburg does not automatically have to declare an emergency when the county does.
