In a recent government meeting, officials discussed the upcoming city council agenda, focusing on an ordinance that is set to return for final approval. The Technical Advisory Committee (TEC) confirmed that they had no comments on the ordinance, which will now be presented to the city council for adoption.
The meeting also included a review of the semiannual report, where members highlighted the need for additional topics to be included. Key suggestions were made for the city manager to present on performance measures relevant to the TEC, as well as updates on live streaming capabilities and remote participation for board members.
Concerns were raised regarding the city's capacity to support ongoing development, particularly in relation to water and wastewater systems. One member emphasized the urgency of understanding the city's remaining capacity to accommodate new construction and services, suggesting that this topic should be addressed in future meetings.
The committee agreed to include five specific items in the semiannual report, including the bond referendum for purchasing riverfront properties and the need for a presentation on the city's infrastructure capacities. A motion was made and passed to approve the report with these additions.
The meeting concluded with an open floor for public comments, allowing community members to voice their concerns and suggestions.
