At its September Meeting, Council continued its discussion about the boat ramp. It was agreed that a letter would be sent to affected residences on Marlin, Dogwood, and Tualamere, asking for citizens to note no later than Oct. 1st, their preference for one of two parking options for Dogwood: “No Parking” or “Residential Parking Only” signs along the south side. Council also discussed the possible purchase of an automatic gate that would close behind users, yet could be opened by a button from the back side.
The City Manager announced the receipt of an $82,000 federal Coronavirus Relief grant, only for certain designated uses. (These will be posted on the City website.) One use, for example, is sewer infrastructure. The City has already received $41,000 of that but must specify by October 31st how it will be spent.
