Votes at a glance: Westminster City Council actions, Jan. 14
Summary
The Westminster City Council approved a multi-item consent agenda, accepted a small land conveyance to SCDOT for a bridge project, amended a flood-damage ordinance reference, approved a change order for the Horton Outdoor Rec complex and adopted calendar items for council and budget work sessions.
The Westminster City Council approved the following actions at its regular meeting on Jan. 14.
- Consent agenda (multiple zoning and planning items; items 4–15 on the printed agenda): Approved (motion and voice vote). Council recorded affirmative votes for each item during roll call.
- First reading / authorization to execute real-property sale with South Carolina Department of Transportation for a small parcel related to the Chopper Ridge bridge project (less than 2,000 square feet): Approved (motion and recorded vote during meeting).
- Ordinance amendment to the city's flood-damage prevention code (specifying Oconee County references and meeting state DNR request): Approved (motion and roll-call vote). Staff noted the change does not create flood districts inside current city limits.
- Contract change order: Prime contract change order 001 with Mammoth Sports (Horton Outdoor Rec Complex) to authorize additional work on fields and lighting as presented in the change-order packet: Approved (motion and roll-call vote). Staff noted the change order increases contract costs by roughly $5,000; staff said pending funding sources will more than cover the amount.
- Council meeting schedule and Westminster budget-development calendar for 2025: Approved (motion and roll-call votes). Council confirmed meeting-date changes discussed in December (November meeting moved to third Tuesday) and adopted the budget calendar.
Each approved item passed on motions made, seconded and recorded in the meeting minutes. Where a roll-call was recorded in the transcript, all recorded votes were "yes." No items failed or were tabled during this session.
