May 28, 2026 City Council Regular Meeting

The City of Lake Forest Park held its regular City Council meeting on May 28, 2026. Key procurement-related discussions included the approval of a new professional services contract for prosecution services with Sarah Roberts PLLC, addressing updated costs and expanded services related to traffic camera violations. The council unanimously voted to waive the three-touch rule and authorized the mayor to execute the contract. Additionally, the council reviewed and discussed a draft six-year Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP), focusing on multimodal infrastructure projects, traffic calming measures, and pedestrian safety improvements. The plan is a budgeting tool subject to ongoing public input and prioritization. The council also considered a master use permit franchise agreement with Forge Fiber 37 LLC, a subsidiary of AT&T, to operate and potentially expand existing fiber optic infrastructure in the city. The agreement follows the city's standard code and includes provisions for maintenance and future expansions requiring permits. Other agenda items included proclamations for Pride Month, National Gun Violence Awareness Day, and Ride Transit Month, as well as community updates and acknowledgments. No additional contract awards or capital projects were approved during this meeting.
