City Administrator Matt Michel reviewed the budget calendar and a staff projects list that included potential priorities: a $1 million city hall expansion contingent on proceeds from a cell‑tower lease buyout, Bolton Hill Sports Complex developments, pavement management needs, and a multi‑use path between Veneta and Elmira that has received $5 million in funding.

Michel said total projected costs for the listed programs and projects were approximately $19.5 million and stated that potential grants would reduce the city's net contribution; the staff report did not specify the total grant amount. Council will consider these items during upcoming budget and Budget Committee meetings scheduled in late May.
