Council defers renewal of code-enforcement contract pending committee review
Summary
The council reviewed 2025 code-enforcement activity—39 vehicles brought into license compliance, nine properties cleaned up, five properties in the cleanup process—and chose not to renew the contract pending a Code Enforcement Committee meeting.
Finance Officer Trudy Waterman relayed 2025 program metrics provided by Joel Johnson: 39 vehicles brought into license compliance, nine properties cleaned up, and five properties in the clean-up process. Waterman also presented 2025 cost figures for code enforcement: a budgeted $10,000 with $6,759.48 expended in 2025.
The Code Enforcement Committee requested a meeting before any contract renewal for 2026; the council did not take action to renew the contract at the Jan. 20 meeting. The minutes record the committee's desire for further review rather than immediate renewal.
