Agenda, item by item
Item 9.1 · City code
Ordinance to create provisional business licenses
Approved · 5-0
The council approved an ordinance, added to Title 5 of the municipal code, creating provisional business licenses so qualifying businesses can begin operating while completing the remaining requirements for a standard license.
- Staff presented draft language with a 30-day license and discussed whether 60 days would give more flexibility. The minutes do not state the duration in the adopted text.
Item 9.2 · Other
Resolution 2026-13: personnel policy definitions update
Approved · 5-0
The council approved Resolution 2026-13, updating definitions in the city's personnel policy. Staff said part-time hours would be measured over a full year (1,560 hours) rather than under 130 hours a month, and part-time, seasonal and variable employees would be consolidated into one part-time category.
- Staff said departments would still have to schedule part-time employees within existing budgets and did not expect an immediate fiscal impact.
Item 9.3 · Appointment
Board and commission appointments
Approved · 5-0
The council appointed Megan Johnson and Darrin Mellor to the Planning Commission and reappointed Matt Taylor to the Airport Board in one motion.
- The minutes say the two Planning Commission appointees replace two outgoing commissioners.
