Top issues during term (11)
short-term rental regulations
It could mean less income for homeowners renting out their places, but potentially more stable property values for everyone else.
Council member resignation and county run
It's unclear yet how this will affect your wallet, but political shake-ups often mean changes in how your tax dollars are spent.
city manager resignation
Finding a new city manager could cost taxpayers money through recruitment fees and potentially a higher salary for the new hire.
downtown development and city hall relocation
Expect a potential economic boom for downtown as this massive project gets underway.
water restrictions
These water projects require substantial capital investment, which may be reflected in water rates for residents.
election recount
Recounts cost money, but it's usually a small price to pay for election accuracy.
affordable housing
This could mean more housing options for folks looking to settle down in the area.
flood response criticism
Residents could face higher costs if flood damage isn't addressed quickly by county services.
animal services
This is a free service, so it won't cost you anything extra!
city council election
Your vote could shape how city funds are spent, impacting everything from local services to future development.
population growth
Expect your taxes and utility bills to potentially go up as the city invests in new infrastructure and services to support everyone.
