Summary

Council reviewed a proposed Q1/Q2 legislative work plan covering right-of-way issues, paving and capital projects, boardwalk and trail work; members urged staff to provide actionable descriptions, timelines and budget connections rather than broad topic headings.

Staff presented a draft legislative work plan that grouped items into near-term (Q1/Q2) and later priorities. Proposed near-term items included right-of-way and sidewalk issues, sign regulation updates, analysis of encroachment and easements related to the boardwalk, paving plans tied to a multiyear $1 million-per-year budget, Hellems Field complex design authorization and a railway-trail extension.

Councilors pressed for greater specificity and for work-plan entries to be actionable: several members asked staff to convert bullet points into concrete legislative proposals, project scopes, or budget requests the council can vote on. Staff said items that require council action will be placed on future agendas and suggested scheduling a follow-up session to prioritize deliverables and available staff time.
