Council accepts GLO grant to support Unified Development Code work

Council authorized the city manager to sign a reimbursement grant from the Texas General Land Office to supplement Phase 2 of Fredericksburg's Unified Development Code project. Cliff reported the project scope will consolidate zoning, subregulations and sign code into a single UDC; the city previously budgeted approximately $175,000 and sought an additional $150,000 to reach an estimated $325,000 total for Phase 2. Staff said approval from the GLO will allow reimbursement of initial costs and permit continuation of Phase 2 work under existing consultant agreements.
