Radford City Council approved several appropriation ordinances and an appointment during the meeting.

Key approvals: the council accepted an increase to the PSAP education grant from $4,000 to $5,000 and appropriated the additional $1,000; it approved appropriation ordinance 18 15.16 for the victim witness grant in the amount of $141,532 (with a required city match of $11,552.66); accepted appropriation 18 15.17 for $2,500 to support the Triad senior-meals program; and approved appropriation 18 15.18 allocating $24,000 to apply a final asphalt topcoat to the Teton Crest subdivision road (21 ft wide by 515 ft long). The council dispensed with second readings where four affirmative votes were recorded.

Appointment: Linton Leary was appointed as the Recreation Commission’s senior liaison by council motion and voice vote.

Why it matters: these appropriations fund ongoing public-safety and senior‑services programs, cover grant matches required by funders, and complete a subdivision road necessary for homeowner access.

Next steps: staff will execute appropriation paperwork, implement the Triad and victim witness programs under grant terms, and schedule the Teton Crest topcoat work before winter weather compromises the base.
