Your feedback helps us prioritize what to improve next.
The wastewater ordinance begins the process of requiring tighter nutrient limits at the treatment plant, but it was approved only on first reading. New beach-kiosk rules also advanced, and larger nighttime fishing gatherings during sea turtle season would need a special permit if the ordinance receives final approval. The council approved $97,631.12 for stormwater pipe replacement, $81,480 for potable-water modeling, and $40,841 for pickleball-court sound panels.
