Five things to watch at Monday’s city council meetings

The College Station City Council gathers Monday at city hall for its workshop (6 p.m.) and regular (7 p.m.) meetings. Here are five items to watch:  

1. Stormwater Management: The council will hear a workshop update on the city’s stormwater management program. A consent agenda item in the regular meeting authorizes the mayor to endorse the 5-year plan that will be submitted to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.
2. Sign Ordinance Changes: The council will discuss potential amendments to the city’s sign ordinance that would allow electronic message boards to change hourly and would change the allowable size of fuel price signs.
3. Ringer Library Audit: The council will hear a workshop presentation on the recent audit of Ringer Library operations by the city’s internal auditor. The report is part of the consent agenda in the regular meeting.
4. Chimney Hill Rezoning: After a public hearing, the council will consider rezoning about eight acres in the Chimney Hill Retail Plaza from General Commercial and Corridor Overlay to Planned Development District.
5. Seismic Survey Regulations: After a public hearing, the council will consider adopting fees and establishing local regulations related to seismic survey permitting. For details, see pages 154-156 of the regular meeting packet.

The meetings can be watched live on Suddenlink Ch. 19, or online. Previous council meetings are archived on the website. A detailed live blog from the meetings will be posted on this site and also can be accessed through the city’s Facebook page.
