Hudson council approves agenda, advances speed-limit ordinance and schedules Butterfield Road hearing
Summary
In a brief meeting, the Hudson City Council approved the agenda and consent items, advanced Ordinance 930 (amending city speed regulations) on its second reading, and set a July 13, 2026 public hearing for the Butterfield Road/Bridal replacement project. Several personnel and wage-related resolutions were discussed and placed on the calendar.
Hudson City Council convened for a short meeting and approved the June 22 agenda and the consent calendar before taking up a set of resolutions and an ordinance affecting city operations and traffic rules.
Staff member (Speaker 3) reviewed a slate of calendar items including Resolution 34 60, which sets a public hearing on plans, specifications, cost estimate and contract form for the Butterfield Road/Bridal replacement project for July 13, 2026. The staff member also described Resolution 34 61, which adjusts fiscal-year-27 wages and removes the assistant library director job title from one job description. "I'm just changing the job title for one of the job descriptions and removing it," the staff member said when explaining the wage resolution.
On Item f, Ordinance 930, the council considered amendments to the city code pertaining to speed regulations on a second reading. A council member moved to approve the ordinance on second reading; the motion received a roll-call and members indicated approval. "Oh, I'll make the motion," one council member said before the roll call proceeded. The council recorded ayes and carried the motion to advance the ordinance.
The meeting covered additional administrative items listed on the calendar, including Resolution 34 62 (Kita Venture hires and wages), Resolution 34 63 (fiscal-year program and transfers) and Resolution 34 64 (mayoral appointments to the Blackhawk County Metropolitan Area Transportation Policy Board for one-year terms). No formal public presentations were recorded during the public-comment portion; the chair opened the floor to those present but no speakers took the podium.
The council set the Butterfield Road hearing for July 13, 2026 and moved the listed wage and appointment items forward for formal action as scheduled. The council adjourned after briefly reviewing upcoming committee dates.
