Board Vacancies
Midland is looking for locals to step up and fill open spots on key boards like the Planning & Zoning Commission and the Midland Development Corporation. If you want a direct say in how the city grows, applications are open until October 16.
Wildcatter Trail Land Acquisition and Development
Midland is moving forward with the Wildcatter Trail project by approving possession and use agreements with local landowners to secure necessary land parcels.
Fire Department Drone Program
The council approved purchasing a drone for the Fire Department to improve emergency response and situational awareness, funded entirely through private corporate donations.
Wayfinding Signs
Midland is putting up 49 new signs to help everyone easily find local museums, parking, and downtown spots. The best part? It's totally paid for by hotel taxes and partners, so it won't cost local property owners a dime.
Annual City Fee Schedule
The council will review and adopt the city's fee schedule for permits, services, and administrative charges taking effect October 1.
