Community Over CarsStrategic Priority
🧡In January 2026, City Council identified a new strategic priority:
🧡Explore legislative solution to ensure local governmental control of public right of ways.
🧡This means:
🧡Clarifying in state law that cities have authority to manage their own streets.
🧡Preventing 19th-century plats from overriding modern local governance.
🧡Ensuring policy decisions are made by elected officials — not private litigants.
