The proposed firearm restriction was not adopted at this workshop; it was sent forward for consideration at the January 20 Council meeting. The Franklin Street project would add a five-foot sidewalk between Aurora Street and the Middle School and replace the waterline, creating a safer walking route for students. Other projects advanced for consideration include Seasons Road resurfacing, capped at a City cost of $250,000, and drainage improvements near Heinen’s to reduce future flooding.
