Staff announces shredding event; Mayor Pro Tem flags budget workshops and infrastructure planning
Summary
Staff announced a document shredding and recycling event and Memorial Day ceremonies; Mayor Pro Tem Chisholm told commissioners council budget discussions are starting and flagged potential infrastructure bond conversations.
Staff reported two community-interest items: a document shredding and recycling event on Saturday, May 16 from 8–11 a.m. at the DeSoto service center, and upcoming Memorial Day events including military appreciation on May 23 and a military day ceremony on May 25.
Mayor Pro Tem Chisholm briefed commissioners that the City Council had begun budget talks and encouraged commissioners to engage in the budget review process; she said staff will distribute budget books in June and that budget workshops are scheduled for late July. “We will possibly have a conversation around a bond for additional infrastructure needs,” Chisholm said and invited commissioners to attend virtual budget sessions to learn more.
Next steps: staff will distribute event details to the public; the mayor pro tem will host budget-information sessions in June and the council’s budget workshop is scheduled for July 30–31.
