See separate article for context and debate. - Resolution 2025‑34 (application to River to Sea TPO prioritized projects grant list for Moody Boulevard feasibility study): Approved 5‑0. City manager and staff emphasized the application would fund a feasibility study and that any physical changes would require later approvals. - Resolution 2025‑29 (pass through of third‑party ACH fees for utility/parking payments): Approved 5‑0. Staff clarified customers may avoid fees by paying by cash, check or bank ACH sweep and explained timing differences. - Resolution 2025‑30 (award to Mead & Hunt for design/permitting of a new 16‑inch Lambert Avenue water main — project no. 636 — amount not to exceed $149,957.90): Approved 5‑0. Staff said the larger crossing/extension construction budget remains a capital priority; the design contract will help make the project shovel‑ready if/when construction funding is available. - Resolution 2025‑31 (declare certain city property surplus): Approved 5‑0. - Resolution 2025‑32 (LABS Construction Services change order for library painting and repairs, $13,093.05): Motion to approve was made; no second was offered and the motion failed (no second). The commission discussed budget timing and whether the work should be budgeted instead of added by change order. - Resolution 2025‑33 (lift station license agreement with private property owner for operation/maintenance of an existing lift station located near A1A snack area): Approved 4‑1. The city explained the existing facility sits on private property and staff is using a license rather than an easement because the lift station is expected to be relocated in a future storm‑hardening project.

Procedural and staff notes - Staff reported the city will submit the TPO application by the stated deadline and will return with feasibility results if funded. - City manager briefed commissioners that the pier project remains in FEMA/DEM review; staff was advised to expect an approximate 60‑day delay tied to environmental/historic preservation review (EHP). Staff and federal/state liaisons described the project as still budgeted through FEMA/DEM/DEP funding but cautioned the EHP review will affect the start timeline.
