It is crucial because it sets specific, consistent, and acceptable road design and construction elements for developers, private parties, and the City. The approved ordinances amended the current Municipal Code and adopted new road standards. ✔Ordinance No. 1083 & No. 1084: Franchise Agreements with Forged Fiber and Astound - Franchise agreements are a useful tool since they outline how utility companies can use public streets and rights-of-way. They define responsibilities for both the City and the company. The Council approved the agreements with Forged Fiber and Astound, which will guide their future work in the City. ✔Ordinance 1085 was approved to amend the FY 2025-2026 Budget - State law requires the City to review and update its budget annually. The primary focus is to ensure that expenditures do not exceed the approved budget. After reviewing the 2025 budget, staff identified necessary adjustments. Most are due to new opportunities that arose during the year or planned expenses that ended up costing more than expected. Examples of these expenses include the City Hall Assessment Study, which was not budgeted, and the 2025 sidewalk repairs, which exceeded the budget. ✔Resolution #1026 approving amendments to the Parks and Recreation - The City Council approved Resolution No. 1026, updating the City’s Parks and Recreation Facility Rental Policy. This update ensures the policy aligns with current facilities and operational practices. The City offers rentals at City Hall and Marvista Park for community gatherings, celebrations, and other events. The revised policy clarifies rental rules, expectations, and procedures. One exciting enhancement is the ability to reserve and pay for rentals online, making the process more convenient and accessible for residents. ✔Resolution #1028 Setting the 2026 Property Tax Levy Rate - Each year, the City Council sets the levy for the upcoming year. Due to a decrease in the City’s assessed valuation, the levy rate was set at 1.60. For homes that have an assessed value of $1,000,000, your City property tax will be $1,600. ✔Resolution #1030 setting the Normandy Park Fee Schedule - The City Council adopted Resolution No. 1030, approving the 2026 fee schedule.
