City launches development-projects page, considers Old City Hall options and a boulevard tree program
Summary
Staff previewed a new Planning & Zoning development-projects web page, said a broker price opinion for the old City Hall site will be sought, and announced a Boulevard Tree Program with 62 addresses signed up; members asked about HOA involvement and watering responsibilities.
City staff demonstrated a new development-projects page and outlined near-term property-management and community programs.
Community development director Jason Stoppel said the city is moving away from PDFs and adding a web page under Planning & Zoning that lists projects, 'last updated' dates and links to additional information. He cited items such as Bridgewater Village, a Primrose School daycare, and concept townhomes under review.
On the old City Hall site, staff will obtain a broker price opinion that will include value, projected rents and parking-plan options; staff expects to bring results back to the EDA in May and said a full tear-down for a parking lot is one of several options.
Stoppel also announced the Boulevard Tree Program: 62 unique addresses have signed up, staff have pricing for about 100 trees and will present a budget amendment so planting can begin in April–May. Members asked whether homeowner associations (HOAs) can participate and who would water the trees; Stoppel said the program asks the adjacent homeowner to confirm and accept a watering bag and that HOAs may participate but staff prefers individual resident acknowledgement to ensure trees are watered and not lost.
The meeting concluded with a motion to adjourn.
