Top issues during term (20)
Title 15 building code rewrite
Staff estimate a permit for an average new single-family home would rise about $731.50; the fee schedule itself was reserved for later action.
Downtown gaming zoning restrictions
No direct cost to the city, but gaming tax revenue could be affected depending on where the final policy lands.
Ice arena expansion financing
City share includes ~$3.2M commitment, ~$1M of in-kind staff work, and possibly front-loading future ice plant maintenance dollars; the last ~$734K is still unfunded.
Elkhorn Creek water rights dispute
One resident reported spending $50,000-$60,000 annually on wells, reservoirs, and mitigation.
Building Code Overhaul Concerns
New codes could affect construction costs for builders and developers; no figure given.
Downtown Hotel Urban Renewal Plan
Developers put construction costs at roughly $26.5 million, with new construction jobs, hospitality jobs, and added sales and lodging tax revenue expected.
Eagle Valley stormwater detention
Neighbors fear flooding damage, insurance hikes, and litigation; the developer says the two homes will boost nearby property values.
Capital Project Funding Gaps
About $16.6 million of the $21 million project still needs a funding source.
Budget Amendment No. 1, FY 2027
About $6 million in genuinely new spending within a $129.9 million amendment.
Workforce housing infrastructure grant
Fifth-penny sales tax renewal and resident priorities survey
Property tax revenue is projected around $4.9 million for FY 2027 and the fifth-cent question will appear on the November ballot.
Opioid Settlement Fund Programs Extended
Funding amounts for individual contracts were not stated in the record; the DCI task force officer contract is $60,000.
Workforce Housing Grant Application
Grant amount not stated; state funds would cover infrastructure costs.
New Tiered Water Rates
Specific rate amounts were not stated in the materials provided.
Downtown alley paving project delays
Seminoe Pumped Storage Concerns
Urban forestry program of the year award
The program secured a nearly $700,000 federal grant that was later rescinded, and continues with state and foundation funding.
Lease Financing for Capital Improvements
$17.5 million in lease financing at an interest rate capped at 5.6%.
Downtown Speeding and Noise
There’s no price tag in the source, but the city could face modest costs for new signs and enforcement while drivers may see time, fuel, or ticket costs shift.
Liquor code modernization
Speakers valued retail liquor licenses at $200,000–$300,000+; expanding catering to cheaper resort licenses could affect that value.
