Summary

Council adopted Ordinance 02/1932 to update electronic submission requirements for development applications and approved a consent agenda allocating about $674,000 in CDBG funds, closing out turf-field contracts and routine departmental items.

The Council adopted Ordinance 02/1932 after the work session: the ordinance updates the municipal code to require electronic application submissions for certain planning and development approvals. Council clarified that the change standardizes digital filing but does not require public posting to the website (the portion that previously mandated posting was removed), addressing an earlier transparency concern.

On the consent agenda the council approved resolutions that allocate fiscal-year 2024 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding of approximately $674,000 for listed projects, authorized final contracts to close out turf-field improvement work (staff stated these were not change orders but project close-outs), and approved a 12‑month contract with Millennium for recovery/grant services (council packet shows a $78,000 annual contract figure and staff said the firm has delivered several million dollars in grants historically). Several items were pulled for separate votes and discussion before the full consent vote. The consent agenda passed on roll call.
