Councilmembers raise Frisbee-golf maintenance, farmers market signage and request discussion on apartment incentives
Summary
Councilmembers asked staff to check Frisbee-golf maintenance and consider a better sign for the farmers market; one councilmember requested an agenda item to discuss apartment tax abatements or incentives.
Several councilmembers raised small but recurring community issues, asking staff to follow up on maintenance and planning items.
Councilmember Clark asked staff to check on Frisbee-golf course maintenance after recent flooding and weed growth were reported; staff said mowing is the typical maintenance and that flooding may have affected vegetation. Councilmembers discussed basket condition and a possible need to reprioritize maintenance.
Councilmembers also raised the farmer's market sign, describing the current plywood sign as "hokey" and asking staff to explore a more permanent or electronic sign if the market is to remain a long-term fixture. Staff said they would look at options and potential locations for signage.
One councilmember asked for a discussion on apartment incentives (abatements) to appear on a future agenda; another councilmember said they were open to a discussion but did not endorse a particular position at the meeting. Several councilmembers encouraged placing the item on a coming agenda for full discussion.
