Huxley — The Huxley City Council voted unanimously Aug. 27 to approve a set of resolutions advancing urban renewal projects and to permit a temporary use of Ballard Creek property by Bayer Crop Science, LP while rezoning is completed.
On a series of motions, council members approved Resolution No. 24-061, which authorizes Bayer Crop Science’s use of Ballard Creek property for housing pending completion of the rezoning process. The council also approved Resolution No. 24-062 to authorize an internal advance to fund the splash pad and parking lot improvement project; Resolution No. 24-063 to fund the Economic Development Support Program; and Resolution No. 24-064 to fund urban renewal administration and professional support. Each resolution passed on recorded aye votes from the four members present.
Those votes followed approval of the consent agenda, which included Resolution No. 24-060 — Payment Application No. 1 for the 3rd Street Water Main Replacement and Street Rehabilitation Project — as well as routine items such as approval of the Aug. 13 meeting minutes, payment of bills, a five-day alcohol permit for Fenceline, and the re-appointment of Ian Knutsen to the Park & Recreation Board.
The minutes record motions made and seconded for these items and roll-call tallies naming Echer, Rigler, Roberts and Murphy as the aye votes; Council member Mulder was absent. No nays or abstentions are recorded in the minutes for these actions.
Next steps: The resolutions authorize internal advances and administrative funding; the minutes do not describe the repayment schedules or exact disbursement dates. Staff will proceed with implementation steps consistent with council direction and the city’s internal processes.
