Windy Hills council approves March financials and discusses $193,126 paving plan and ADA sidewalk work
Summary
The council approved March financial reports and bills, heard fiscal figures including an ARPA balance of $8,418.64 (earmarked for seven parking spaces at the Green) and a Road Fund balance of $60,942.82, and reviewed a proposed $193,126 paving plan and $52,680 in ADA sidewalk upgrades.
The Windy Hills City Council approved March 2025 financial reports and bills and reviewed next fiscal-year road and sidewalk proposals at its April 14 meeting.
Councilwoman Kate Greer moved to approve the March financial reports (Profit & Loss and Balance Sheet); Councilwoman Julie Theiler seconded and the motion passed unanimously. Mayor Dr. John Roberts reported that "income is over budget currently and expenses are on budget," and the clerk provided account balances: the ARPA account held $8,418.64 to be used toward adding seven parking spaces at the Green, and the Road Fund balance as of March 31 was $60,942.82. The clerk also announced a required Public Road Fund hearing at the May council meeting to discuss proposed projects.
Councilman Steve Teaford presented proposed costs for the coming fiscal year: an estimated $193,126 for summer 2025 road paving and $52,680 to bring sidewalks in Windhurst and Windsong into ADA compliance. Teaford also noted that, thanks to Metro Councilwoman Paula McCraney, new sidewalks will connect North Hubbard’s Lane and Brownsboro Road to complete that loop. The council did not take a funding vote on those specific projects at the April meeting; the May Public Road Fund hearing will address project priorities and expenditures.
On routine business, Councilman Teaford moved to approve March bills totaling $59,593.33; Councilwoman Greer seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
During the public-safety portion of his report, Teaford said speeding data showed fewer than 15% of drivers on Ambridge and Indian Ridge traveled over 35 mph; the council asked staff to research possible speed humps or stop signs. Teaford and Councilman Paul Morris also said they are conducting a streetlight survey in Windy Hills.
The council did not take further budget actions at the meeting; the May Public Road Fund hearing will provide a formal opportunity for public input and for council decisions on road and sidewalk spending.
