During a recent government meeting, the council unanimously approved a conditional use permit for the Goddard School Project, designated as Project Number 01-2024-00564. The resolution, which also includes the diamond edition final plat (Project Number 01-2024-00565), was passed with a motion and second from council members, highlighting the pressing need for additional educational facilities in the community.

Council members expressed gratitude for the project, noting a significant demand for childcare services, with reports of a waiting list that currently includes 210 children. The urgency for such facilities was underscored by families reaching out to the council for assistance. The new school is anticipated to open in May, with construction expected to progress rapidly, similar to the timeline of a previous project completed in just six months.

In addition to the approval, there was a brief mention of a future discussion regarding canopies, indicating ongoing considerations for the project’s infrastructure. The meeting concluded with a light-hearted moment regarding the lighting in the hallway, emphasizing the council's commitment to maintaining a welcoming environment.
