Summary
The commission enacted Ordinance Bill 7-26 authorizing up to $7.1 million in general obligation bonds to fund projects including Cedar Boulevard parking, lighting and turf work, main park improvements, Brafferton Field and library revitalization; the measure passed on a special-procedure roll-call vote.
On July 28 the Mount Lebanon Commission introduced and enacted Ordinance Bill 7-26, authorizing the issuance of general obligation bonds in a principal amount not to exceed $7,100,000 (series 2026). Commissioner Flynn presented the ordinance, saying the funds would support the listed capital projects and pay bond issuance costs. The projects enumerated for financing totaled $6,000,000 and included Cedar Boulevard parking, Seymour lighting and turf installation, Main Park plan (with add‑alternates), Brafferton Field work, and library revitalization.
Commissioner Flynn moved to enact the ordinance by special procedure under section 114.6 of the administrative code; the commission conducted a roll-call vote (four votes required). The roll call recorded affirmative votes from Commissioners Flynn, Izzo, Swagger Wilson and President Ziegler, and the motion passed. The commission closed the related public hearing before taking the vote. Details about repayment terms and timing of issuance were not presented at the hearing and are not specified in the meeting record.
