Council approves funding amendments for sidewalks on Dulles Drive and Marie Street amid public discussion
Summary
The Scott City Council moved to amend the budget to fund sidewalks on Dulles Drive ($162,800) and Marie Street ($119,500) after extended public and council discussion; minutes note at least one dissenting vote on Dulles and an inconsistency in the Marie Street vote record.
The Scott City Council on Nov. 3 approved budget amendments to fund two sidewalk projects following extended public and council discussion.
Councilman Suire moved to amend the budget by $162,800 to install sidewalks on Dulles Drive; Councilman Hollier seconded. The minutes state the motion "carried by majority" and record that Councilman Boudreaux voted against the amendment. Several council members and members of the public took part in a lengthy discussion before the vote, according to the minutes.
On a separate motion, Councilman Hollier moved to amend the budget by $119,500 for sidewalks on Marie Street; Councilman Suire seconded. The minutes record a lengthy discussion and state that the motion "carried unanimously," but also expressly note that Councilman Boudreaux voted against the motion. The council minutes do not resolve that contradiction; the record therefore reflects an internal inconsistency about the Marie Street vote.
The meeting minutes do not provide detailed timelines for construction or funding sources beyond the identified budget amendments. No additional conditions or implementation deadlines are recorded in the minutes.
The council adjourned at 7:15 p.m.
