- ORD 39‑25 (zoning map amendment): Zoning amendments for properties (CAR 25‑12 referenced) were approved as presented.

The ordinance passed on split vote, 3 in favor (Halliburton, Nash, Stead) and 2 opposed (Willets, Corliss).

- ORD 47‑25 (code cleanup — prima facie speed limit): Council approved a cleanup that sets a 20 mph prima facie default speed limit where no speed signs are posted; council members framed it as a safety and enforcement clarification. Vote recorded as unanimous in favor.

- ORD 48‑25 (franchise addendum): Council approved an addendum to the Intermountain Gas Company franchise agreement that temporarily extends the term and provides written acceptance; motion carried unanimously after suspending reading rules for immediate consideration.

Votes and procedure
Clerk roll calls and motions were used for readings and approvals. Several items were read by title and approved by motion; for ORD 40‑25 council divided 3–2 while ORD 47‑25 and ORD 48‑25 passed unanimously after suspension of reading rules and third‑reading dispensation.

What to watch
The special‑events liquor change (ORD 40‑25) elicited public‑safety and public‑health concerns from some council members and may prompt monitoring and possible adjustments to enforcement or operational guidance as events proceed.
