Top issues during term (4)(Transportation)
sidewalk infrastructure
The city is currently weighing budget allocations to cover the costs of these repairs and new construction projects.
public transit expansion
While funding specifics weren't detailed, expanded services typically require increased operational budgets that could impact local transit allocations.
sidewalk café pilot program
Local restaurants could see a nice boost in revenue from extra seating, but setting up the spaces might cost the city or business owners some initial cash.
e-scooter and e-bike ordinance
Local riders might see new parking fees or fines if rules aren't followed, while the city invests time in enforcement.
