Top issues during term (20)(Public Safety)
Liability, recreational immunity, and the fencing decision
Park closure savings and insurance numbers aren't yet public — councilors demanded those figures before reopening decisions.

Towing, training, and possible future code work cost staff time and money, but no specific figure was given.
City Ordinance Updates
Declining crash totals and distracted driving
No direct cost to residents, though enforcement operations require police staffing.
Halloween pedestrian safety at River Road construction
Council oversight and guardrails on the city manager's authority
Municipal Court caseload and judge compensation
Raises judge pay $3,000 a year plus a one-time $3,000 payment; funded from the Court Fund.
Tramart News press access dispute
Internet Hotspot and Internet Use Policy Review
No cost identified yet — any policy change could affect replacement-charge rules, like the $85 lost-hotspot fee.
