Mesa council approves consent package, calls special transportation bond election and adopts five-year CIP
Summary

The Mesa City Council unanimously approved a package of consent items that included multi-year contracts for security and vehicle glass services, a guaranteed maximum price for a sewer project, an amendment with Maricopa County Flood Control for drainage work, a call to submit a transportation bond to voters, and adoption of the five-year capital improvement program.
City staff outlined the consent items during the meeting. Mayor Freeman asked for a motion to approve the grouped items; the council moved and voted, and the motion passed unanimously. During the meeting staff noted that one consent item (6g) was removed from the consent list so a speaker could comment.

The action to call a special transportation bond election was discussed during public comment; a resident who supported the bond asked the council to review lessons learned from the 2020 Mesa Moves bond and requested more community input on shared-use paths and project prioritization. City staff did not expand on timing in the meeting minutes recorded in the transcript.
