Woodstock council approves URA plan amendment to finance two fire stations and an intergovernmental agreement on second readings
Summary
On second readings, the council approved an URA plan amendment to finance two new fire stations and an intergovernmental agreement related to a partition; both votes carried (each recorded as 5–0 with one absence noted).
The council voted on two second-reading items required by law. Councilman Wolff moved to approve the consent agenda earlier in the meeting; later, on item 7-1, city staff explained the URA plan amendment is intended to finance two new fire stations. After opening a brief public hearing and finding no changes since first reading, the council voted to adopt the ordinance on second reading; the motion carried 5–0 with Councilman Johnson noted absent.
Immediately afterward, the council considered a related intergovernmental agreement (item 8-1) tied to a partition matter. City attorney Moon said the item required a second vote; Councilman Usher moved, Councilman Wolf seconded, and the council again approved the item 5–0 with Councilman Johnson absent.
Separately, the consent agenda (items 1–12) was approved earlier in the meeting on a motion by Councilman Wolff and second by Councilman Ake. The council later approved minutes, took an operational parking update, and recessed into an executive session for personnel, litigation and real-estate matters. No additional action on the URA or IGA items was announced following the votes.
