During public comment on the consent agenda, citizens raised concerns about an outsourced alarm vendor's poor customer service, prompting the council to discuss using a supplemental budget to expedite bringing the service back in-house. Additionally, the council held a public hearing to adopt the six-year Transportation Improvement Program. During this hearing, staff addressed previous public testimony by explaining the funding, grant eligibility, and scoring criteria that keep a highly requested neighborhood trail project on the unfunded list.
