The council also unanimously adopted Ordinance 4919 updating floodplain development regulations. Members discussed the impacts of updated FEMA flood maps, including effects on property owners’ flood-insurance requirements and the city’s eligibility for federal disaster funding; the city plans to pursue map amendments for affected areas where possible.

The council approved first-reading resolutions, to be laid over for public inspection, concerning infrastructure work: a $25,217 proposal from Hair Construction Inc. to slip-line a storm sewer outfall at 207 Timberlane; a $16,000 invoice for rented equipment associated with a water-main replacement; and a $27,900 invoice from CNG Concrete Construction Co. for driveway and sidewalk repairs related to water and sewer main work.
