Board of Zoning Adjustments — August 11, 2026
The city requires businesses redeveloping along arterial roads to plan shared driveways so traffic moves between properties without re-entering the main road. This case tests how strictly that rule is applied when a neighboring owner doesn't want the connection — and whether past waivers set the tone for future ones.
Finance & Administration Council Committee — July 28, 2026
The committee recommends hiring RL Persons Construction, the low bidder, to widen South Caraway Road, funded by the capital improvement revenue bond budget.
Finance & Administration Council Committee — June 30, 2026
The widening from Parker Road to Fox Meadow Lane is on track: bids open July 15, groundbreaking by late August or early September, and completion around the end of 2027. It'll be five lanes near Parker Road, transitioning to three lanes south to Glenn's Place, plus a 10-foot side path all the way to Fox Meadow.
