Top issues during term (20)
Rodeo and Fairgrounds Master Plan Adoption
Null
West Granite Creek Park Parking and Open Space Balance
Option C's retaining wall and bump-out add cost; the coalition pegged the wall-related work near $500,000 versus under $30,000 for Option D — final design will settle the number.
State Route 89 Dells Widening and Wastewater Pipeline Project
Potential state funding for the $4 million 89/89A on-ramps and other road projects.
Transportation and Street Maintenance Capital Projects
Project implementation costs will depend on future grant funding and capital improvement allocations.

Future stormwater requirements could add costs for large commercial and residential developers.
Parks and Recreation Master Plan Update
The plan itself doesn't commit money — projects will be funded through future budgets, the capital improvement program, and grants.
Workforce Housing Strategy Implementation
No fiscal impact was tied to the town hall itself; any future programs would come back to the council separately.
Possible donation of land and funds for a library
No city cost — the project is donor-funded; a letter of support was the only city action.

The financial terms of the lease weren't disclosed since the discussion was closed to the public.

Potential civil fines of up to $2,500 per day for ongoing non-compliance.
