Council reenacts Title 1, approves office upgrades and school‑safety crossing funding
Loading...
Summary
Council adopted updates to Title 1 (general provisions) and approved two allotments: a city office renovation to create staff workspace and a traffic/safety project (pedestrian crossing) for Venture Academy; discussion of a DocuWare cloud service was postponed pending additional information.
The city council moved forward on several administrative items: reenacting Title 1 of the municipal code to align wording and codification with state law, and approving two allotments for capital improvements.
Staff explained Title 1 updates (city seal, logos, formatting) and said the ordinance addresses code modernization dating to 2002. A motion to adopt the revised Title 1 passed.
On capital allotments, staff sought approval for a DocuWare document digitization/cloud hosting arrangement (setup quoted at $25,000 covering a five‑year term) but council requested further details on redundancy, hosting and data retrieval and deferred final action on that item.
Council approved a city office renovation so staff can be housed safely (bid discussed around $12,000–$15,000, with contingency) and authorized traffic/safety work at Venture Academy that includes a raised pedestrian crossing; staff and committee members said the crossing meets recognized design guidance and will improve student safety.
Those two expenditures were approved by motion and roll call; staff will return with procurement details and any grant applications that may offset costs.
