Proposed Ward and Precinct Changes

Due to the 2020 census, the City Council must review its precinct and ward boundaries to see whether the existing boundaries comply with current laws.  As part of this process, the City Council must hold a public hearing before final action is taken to adopt new ward and precinct boundaries.  The public hearing is scheduled during the upcoming regular City Council meeting at 6 PM on December 6. Additional information, as well as the proposed ward and precinct maps, can be found at the links below.

New Council Orientation

This coming Thursday, December 9, the newly elected Mayor and Council members will take part in a day-long orientation session with City and IMU Department heads.  As part of this orientation, tours of various City and IMU facilities will take place.  

Square Reconstruction (Streetscape) Project Update

Construction between the walkable portion of the new sidewalks and the curb continued this week, including the installation of streetlights.  Please note that because of shipping delays, IMU has set temporary galvanized streetlights in certain areas.  These galvanized streetlights will be replaced once the permanent streetlights are delivered, which is anticipated to be next Spring.  Next week, crews will continue on the sidewalks and power will begin to be run within Phase 1.  Additionally, signs and pavement markings will begin to be placed.  Moving forward, the plan is to start opening up blocks that are nearly completed in the next week.  The contractor will continue to open up additional blocks as they are finished, with the intention of having Phase 1 completed within the next 3 weeks.
