Top issues during term (20)(Public Safety)
Sidewalk obstructions and traffic safety on Bristol/Fern
Abandoned garage sale signage as blight
Any new registration or fine system would likely require staff time but no major expenditure was cited.
MERS retirement benefits for firefighters
Better pension funding reduces future pressure on city budgets and taxpayers.
Loitering and security near Dort Hwy corridor hotel
The owner plans to expand from a 16-channel to a 24-camera system and add canopy and building lighting at his own cost.
Foundation certification timing in building-permit process
Drug activity at 3509 Fern Avenue
Genesee and Davidson crosswalk signals
Southmoor Golf Course clubhouse security
Putting up a fence would cost the city money on a property it doesn't own; eventual demolition costs are unknown.
Fire hydrant maintenance
Southmoor/DSB Golf clubhouse demolition
Blighted property at 4312 Dort Highway
Outdoor warning siren audibility
Nuisance/hazardous property hearings
Proactive citywide enforcement would strain one code enforcer and slow court processes; no dollar figure given.
Retail fraud task force results
Tires stored against Red Baron building on Center Road
Covert Road strip mall condition
Paramedic millage renewal
Sheriff/Paramedic millage renewal on the August ballot
It's a renewal, not a tax increase — but failing it would cost the county its entire paramedic division.
New streetlight at Pear Tree and Belsay
About $230.
MAFF firefighters contract (2026-2029)
The contract covers part-time firefighter wages for three years; the city is saving an estimated $400 in attorney fees by not requiring a closed-session review.
