City manager reports infrastructure progress, AWS grant and police upgrades
Summary
The city manager told council the city is advancing water and wastewater projects, has finalized documentation for a $1.5 million Amazon Web Services grant, deployed new police vehicles and uniforms, and expects a large economic-development closing that could create jobs and investment.
The city manager used the report to summarize several operational updates and recent awards.
On infrastructure, the manager said the water plant's clear well removal is under way and civil-plan review and permitting for the wastewater treatment plant are in progress. He told council the recommended budget will be brought to a public hearing on June 9.
The manager announced that documentation is finalized for a $1.5 million Amazon Web Services (AWS) grant and that purchase and execution have begun, including procurement actions described as strengthening emergency and fleet capabilities. He also said new police vehicles are in service and the department is standardizing uniforms and issuing platform equipment consistent with regional interoperability.
The report closed with economic-development news: a prospective closing on 64 acres anticipated in June that the manager said could bring initial investment and local jobs, subject to buyer commitments and finalization.
