Top issues during term (9)(Environment)
Ward 3 hot mix asphalt plant
Potential fines for the city if stormwater compliance lapses under the consent decree.
Consent Decree modification and sewer deadline extension
Your sewer bill keeps climbing 3.5% a year through 2030 and possibly beyond to fund the decree work.
Race Track Road water line improvements
Construction contract of $1,372,304, funded by 2018 Revenue Bonds.
water quality warning
You could be out money for bottled water or plumbing checks until officials say the tap is safe.
Farmers Market canopy and solar project closeout
$24,000 total, split between CBID (up to $13,000), Main Street, and private donors.
water conservation
Roughly $2.6 million a year for four years (~$10.4–11 million total); recovering even 5% of lost water could mean significant annual revenue.
Hazard mitigation grant applications for creek and riverbank stabilization
If awarded, the city would owe a 25% local match of $100,000 on the Mill Creek project.
Electric Vehicle Charging Stations on City Property
$3.25 million from the Climate Pollution Reduction Grant, budgeted.
water capacity planning
Get the estimate wrong and residents could pay more through water rates or infrastructure costs—or growth could stall if capacity looks too tight.
