Council approves consent calendar and routine resolutions; roundup of votes
Summary
Council approved the consent calendar (including a held item clarification), a fund-transfer resolution to repay a 12 Bridges project, and a salary-band revision for the engineering manager; all recorded votes were affirmative among present members.
At the meeting the Lincoln City Council approved multiple routine items and resolutions.
The consent agenda was moved and approved with recorded affirmative votes from Councilmember Joyner, Councilmember Brown, Councilmember Andreatta, Councilmember Lauritzen and Mayor Carl Skint. Item 8E was held for clarification; Item 8D (a Healthy Cities grant application to request $30,000–$40,000 for a permanent outdoor fitness installation at Fosgate Park) was discussed and remained on consent with attention called to anticipated match funding if the grant is awarded.
Resolution 2024-1906 (Item 10a) authorized transfer of funds from the 12 Bridges Assessment District fund to the PCWA water connection fund to repay costs associated with the 12 Bridges pressure-reducing meter and metering station; staff characterized the action as part of ongoing cleanup of long-outstanding bond repayments and the measure passed unanimously.
Resolution 2024-187 (Item 10b) revised the salary band for the engineering manager classification from $147,609 to $161,508 to address compaction and aid recruitment. Veronica Rodriguez (HR) said the change will help recruit for one existing vacancy and that the estimated cost for the remainder of the fiscal year (presented in the meeting) could be absorbed within the existing budget; council moved, seconded and approved the change.
