To address the council about any item on the workshop or regular agenda, you must register with the city secretary by 3 p.m. or call 979-764-3500 and provide your name and phone number. Written comments will be provided to the council members.
Here are five items to watch:
1. Lick Creek Trail Midtown Crossing
The council will review options for the Lick Creek Hike and Bike Trail crossing at Midtown Drive in the workshop. The underpass crossing opened in 2019, but silt deposits have created issues.
2. Dog and Cat Sales
The council will have a workshop discussion about a possible ordinance amendment that prohibits the sale of dogs and cats by pet shops unless they were obtained from an animal shelter or an animal rescue organization.
3. Unlimited Potential Support
As part of the consent agenda, the council will consider a request for financial support from Unlimited Potential to purchase and rehabilitate the facility at 1115 Anderson to provide support services for young adults aged out of foster care.
4. Fowl in City Limits
In the regular meeting, the council will consider an ordinance regarding chickens and other fowl kept in the city limits. Possible changes include reducing the distance requirement between the fowl enclosure and the owner’s dwelling from 100 to 50 feet and limiting the number of chickens allowed to six.
5. Strategic Plan Update
The council will consider updates to its FY 21 Strategic Plan, including modifications to priorities and strategies for FY 22.
