La Vergne City officials are gearing up for significant infrastructure improvements as they prepare to issue two bond proposals in the upcoming fiscal year. During the recent budget workshop, city leaders discussed plans for a $25 million bond to fund road construction projects over the next two years, addressing long-standing traffic concerns in the area.

The proposed bond will cover essential street projects, including the completion of Walden Road, which has faced delays and rising costs over the past four years.

In addition to road improvements, the city is also looking to adjust water and sewer rates. A new minimum water rate of $22 will be implemented, with additional charges for usage beyond the first 2,000 gallons. These adjustments are based on a recent rate study and aim to ensure the sustainability of the city’s water services.

City officials emphasized the importance of regularly reviewing the fee schedule, as it plays a crucial role in generating revenue for the city. The discussions also included the need to update municipal codes to reflect changes in fees for parks and recreation services, ensuring that all ordinances are properly referenced.
