Summary
At its meeting the Clayton City Council approved several ordinances and a paving contract: a final development plan for DDC Management LLC, acceptance of Hunters Path Phase 1 rights-of-way, and a paving contract for full-depth repairs on Winger and Hope roads. Roll-call tallies are included where recorded.
The Clayton City Council acted on multiple routine and project-related items, approving a final development plan, accepting road dedications, and awarding a paving contract using leftover funds from the city's paving program.

Outcome: approved.
- Ordinance O102527: Authorized the city manager to accept dedication of specified rights-of-way at Hunters Path Phase 1 (roads named in the packet included extensions such as Falls/Fall Gold, Willow Road, Redwood Road and Falls Road). Staff member Randy Sanders informed council required repairs had been completed. Motion to approve recorded as moved by Mr. Merkel and seconded by Ms. Kelly. Roll call recorded: Farmer: Yes; Henning: No; Gorman: Yes; Merkel: Yes; Kelly: Yes; Bachman: Abstain; Stevens: Yes. Outcome: passed (5–1 with 1 abstention reported in the packet).
- Resolution R102575: Authorized the city manager to enter into a contract with Wagner Paving Inc. for full-depth asphalt repair on Winger and Hope roads for the 2025 fiscal year. Staff reported $43,000 remained from the Jorge(s)en paving project; Wagner's bid beat the other bidder by about $25,000. Motion to approve was made and seconded; outcome: approved (voice vote; no roll-call recorded in the transcript).
Other actions - Approval of minutes from Oct. 2, 2025 work session and council meeting (motion carried; minutes accepted as amended).
Context and clarifications - The DDC Management LLC ordinance references a 37.098-acre site and provided a parcel identifier used in the motion. - Hunters Path Phase 1 dedication was presented by Randy Sanders (city staff); staff confirmed required repairs were completed prior to acceptance. - The paving resolution used leftover project funds ($43,000) to address two roadway segments with severe pavement damage; staff noted a rise in asphalt prices compared with prior years.
What was not decided - The record shows the council approved the actions listed above. Where a separate contract, TIF agreement, or further engineering condition is required, staff said those items will return to council when the documents are complete.
Ending Council also heard routine city-manager and department reports and closed the meeting after council and mayor comments.
