City Council Informational, 4 PM, Sept 3
A presentation from the planning department on a ‘Pedestrian Plan.’
City Council Regular Meeting, 7 PM, Sept 3
Item #6, Approval of Contracts. I find it interesting that the city is going to pay $300K for a school park? I have no idea what this plan is or if it is in coordination with the school district. Hopefully we will have more details at the meeting. It also looks like the money is JUST for ‘planning’ the site. We are also dumping another $45K into the indoor pool for something called ‘window fans’. I remember when they were designing the place, we were told they would take extra care in ensuring we would use durable materials and equipment to keep maintenance costs down. I find it interesting that after only a couple of years we are installing new equipment.
Item #35, 1st reading, Renewing franchise agreement with Midco.
Item #36-37, 1st Readings, Kirby downtown dog park and gifting agreement of $600K.
Planning Commission Meeting, 6 PM, Sept 4
Item #5B, Bob’s Chicken Casino. Planning department recommending denial due to neighborhood opposition.
Item #5C, Another casino on North Cliff, while some of the neighbors oppose, the Planning department recommends approval.
Item #5E, It’s a Pizza party! They want to build a pizzeria in a residential neighborhood by USF, they would serve beer. Some neighbors are opposed to alcohol in the neighborhood.
Item #5I, Looks like the Sanford Sports Complex is considering building a baseball stadium. First time I heard about this.
