Moody council authorizes pursuit of up to $5 million bond and other funds for new police station
Summary
The Moody City Council voted unanimously to move forward with plans for a new police station, authorizing pursuit of a $5 million bond plus ARP funds and other city funds not to exceed $1.55 million. The vote directs staff to advance project planning and financing steps.
The Moody City Council authorized plans March 14 to pursue bond financing and other funds to build a new police station.
Mayor Joe Lee asked the council to move forward with a project funded by a proposed new bond issue of $5,000,000, American Rescue Plan (ARP) funds and additional city funds not to exceed $1,550,000. Council Member Linda Crowe moved to authorize proceeding with the project; the motion was seconded by Council Member Matt Morris and carried by unanimous vote.
Council did not set a construction contract or final financing terms at the meeting; the action authorizes the city to advance planning and financing steps necessary to build the facility. The minutes do not record a specific timeline for bond issuance or design work; next steps are administrative and will be handled by city staff and finance officials.
