Council weighs natural‑gas hookup for Dobbs Subdivision; $450,000 estimate leaves decision pending
Summary
Council discussed bringing natural gas to the Dobbs Subdivision and heard an estimated infrastructure cost of about $450,000; council noted property owners would not be required to connect and asked staff to obtain final cost figures before deciding.
Council members discussed natural‑gas service options for the Dobbs Subdivision during the June 8 meeting but took no formal action.
Public Works Director Josh Billings said an initial estimate for extending natural gas service to the subdivision is approximately $450,000. Council members noted that the city would not require property owners to connect if infrastructure is installed, and they directed staff to obtain final, detailed cost estimates and additional information before selecting between extending natural gas service or allowing individual propane tanks.
The matter will return to council when final cost figures and service terms are available. No formal motion or vote was recorded on the utility option during the meeting.
