City Council Meeting Roundup

On Tuesday, August 13th, the City Council held its regular monthly meeting. Here are the meeting highlights to help keep you informed.

 

  • The City Council authorized staff to continue working on a Recreation and Conservation Office (RCO) Grant to improve Marvista Park. Staff has applied for a grant related to the Marvista Park playground area. It has a 50% match requirement, so if we succeed, we must allocate approximately $365,000 towards this project.
  • An Automated License Plate Reader Grant Program was approved. The City Council approved a grant program encouraging larger commercial properties (10 tenants or more) to install FLOCK cameras. Grant awards can be up to $10,000 and are intended to fund cameras for the first year, with the property owner committing to at least one additional year.
  • The Parks Commission was asked to review two specific park improvements/capital projects for future consideration. The City Council asked the Parks Commission to continue its work on the proposed Multi-Use Sports Court and to begin developing a plan for a City-owned parcel north of Marine View Park.
  • The City Council approved a letter opposing the Kroger-Albertsons Merger. The Council is concerned about the impact this proposed merger would have on Normandy Park residents. Accordingly, the Council approved a letter that will be sent to the Attorney General opposing the merger.
  • A professional service contract was approved for a pavement evaluation and rating study. The last pavement evaluation was completed in 2015, and it is time for an update. The total contract cost is $29,800, and it will be funded through the Streets Fund.

 

I encourage you to watch the meeting recording to learn more about these and other topics
