The council approved multiple administrative and policy actions that affect city services and finances. Most notably, they agreed on a stormwater plan that will raise the stormwater utility fee once by 37% and then tie future increases to inflation to pay for drainage projects through 2041. The city will implement changes from a staff pay and classification study, keep its amended solid waste contract in place, and move forward with community event and park use agreements. An auditor selection committee will be formed to oversee hiring a financial auditor, and the city will draft new rules about golf cart use in parks.
