- The urban renewal amendment also updated the City's Storm Water Drainage Project previously approved in October 2022. Council heard an update on new storm water drainage issues near Sunrise Avenue and Joyce Street, including the culvert under the railroad tracks south of First Street and railroad permitting delays. This signals an open infrastructure need that still depends on permitting and project definition.
- The bills included DGR Engineering for engineering work on the WWTP and Maris Estates Phase II. This confirms an active engineering relationship on wastewater treatment plant and subdivision infrastructure work. The project is already in execution, so the commercial value is in follow-on engineering, inspection, and related project support.
