Council authorizes SICOG contract for comprehensive plan and accepts affordable housing RFQ
Summary
The council authorized the mayor to sign a professional services contract with SICOG for the city's comprehensive plan, assigned Rodney Burch to oversee the work within the 2025 budget, and accepted an RFQ seeking affordable housing partners with a $10,000 phase-one budget.
Rodney Burch presented a draft annexation plan and GIS mapping options and asked the council to authorize SICOG to participate in the city's comprehensive plan. Council President Rickey Frandsen moved to authorize the mayor to sign a professional services contract with SICOG and to have Rodney work with SICOG to oversee the effort consistent with the 2025 budget; the motion passed with the mayor breaking a prior tie as recorded in the paragraph for that item.
Separately, the council accepted a Request for Qualifications seeking affordable-housing partners and recommended a phase-one budget of $10,000. The RFQ acceptance was moved by Councilperson John Head and carried unanimously. The actions position the city to begin a multi-step planning process that includes external assistance from SICOG and an initial investment toward housing planning.
