Councilors raise concerns about upcoming vacancies, park striping, library talks and EV charger delays
Summary
During council comments Councilor Corcoran asked about procedures if no candidates run for upcoming council or mayor vacancies; Councilors Williams and Davis raised questions about utility marker flags and pickleball lines; Councilor Kuiken was told EV charging components are back-ordered and may take up to nine months.
Councilor Corcoran opened a discussion about the upcoming openings for City Council member and mayor and asked what would happen if no one volunteered to run for those offices. The exchange noted the vacancies as a topic for future attention but the transcript records no formal direction or policy change during the meeting.
Councilor Williams asked about small red flags posted around the city; the consensus in the discussion was that the flags were locating power lines. Councilor Davis confirmed that pickleball lines will be painted on the Cheney Sport Court and said the city is in discussions with TRL about the library’s future; specifics of those library discussions were not provided in the transcript. Councilor Kuiken asked when EV charging station construction would occur and was advised the needed components are on back order and may take up to nine months to arrive.
