Council approves incentive extension, traffic‑calming projects and several appointments
Summary
Council extended the sign removal/replacement incentive (program balance $275,000, 80% up to $7,000 per project), approved traffic-calming on three roads with county contributions totaling $63,000, and confirmed appointments to the Cultural Arts Commission and building board of adjustments.
City staff requested and council approved several administrative and funding actions on Dec. 9.
Staff (identified in the meeting as Mrs. Ziegler) asked to extend the sign removal and replacement incentive plan, reporting a program balance of $275,000 and proposing to continue the program at 80% reimbursement up to $7,000 per project until funds are exhausted. Council approved the extension and the addition of a waste‑screening grant.
The council then approved traffic‑calming projects for Anita Drive, Foxborough Road and Red Cypress Drive. Staff said petitions met the program criteria and that the work would exhaust the 2026 budget for the program; county council members contributed $40,000 and $23,000 toward the projects. The council also approved appointments to the Cultural Arts Commission (two two‑year terms) and the building board of adjustments (a three‑year term).
