Junction City schedules April community meetings to gather input on administrator search and projects
Summary
Council scheduled three community meetings (April 9–11) and agreed to use the community building and social media to broaden outreach; meetings will provide updates on public works and police and solicit input on the city administrator recruitment.
Council approved dates for three community meetings tied to the recruitment process and regular quarterly outreach: Tuesday April 9, Wednesday April 10 and Thursday April 11, with two evening sessions at 6:00 p.m. and one daytime meeting. The administrator recommended using the community building as the venue for simplicity and broad access.
"Once you guys make your decision here Tuesday, we'll work on a flyer. We'll get it on social media and get it out as best we can," the administrator said, describing planned outreach via the city website, reader board and partner organizations such as the library and Chamber. Councilors urged including the recruitment and public‑works updates on the agenda to gather feedback from residents and staff.
Councilors agreed to reduce quarterly community meetings from six to four for the quarter and emphasized better notice and cross‑posting through local groups to boost attendance. No formal vote was recorded; council members agreed on the schedule and asked staff to proceed with flyers and social media outreach.
