The College Station City Council gathers Thursday at city hall for its workshop (5:30 p.m.) and regular (7 p.m.) meetings. Here are five items to watch:
- Veterans Park and Athletic Complex Build-out: The council will hear a workshop presentation about Phase 1 of the Veterans Park and Athletic Complex Build-out. The $3.67 million project — funded with hotel tax revenues — would add two synthetic athletic fields, lighting, parking spaces, and other amenities.
- Special Presentations: Mayor Nancy Berry will proclaim October as National Cyber Security Awareness Month and Nov. 2-6 as Municipal Courts Week.
- Dominik Drive Sidewalks: As part of the consent agenda, the council will consider a $66,000 contract for the construction of sidewalks on the south side of Dominik Drive between Stallings Drive and Munson Avenue. The project qualifies for a federal Community Development Block Grant.
- Comprehensive Plan/UDO Review: After a public hearing, the council will discuss the annual review of the city’s Comprehensive Plan and Unified Development Ordinance.
- ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan: After a public hearing, the council will consider adopting the city’s Americans with Disabilities Act Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan, which outlines how the city will improve accessibility for the physically challenged and fulfill federal requirements.
The meetings can be watched live on Suddenlink Ch. 19, or online. The website includes an archive of previous council meetings. We’ll post a detailed live blog on this site.
