Emergency Equipment and Fleet Purchases
The county is reviewing multiple fleet items, including transmission repairs for Unit #75107, a maintenance agreement with Sewell Fleet Management, and a new software management system for the Fleet Department.
Zoning Change
That vacant Wendy's on Andrews Highway could soon be replaced with a brand-new drive-thru restaurant if the City Council gives the green light to a local developer's zoning change request. It's a routine upgrade that'll shake up a familiar corner of town.
Meeting Schedule
Midland City Council locked in their 2027 meeting dates, keeping their usual spot on the second and fourth Tuesday of every month at City Hall. It's a handy schedule to keep track of if you want to stay in the loop on local neighborhood decisions.
Airport Funding
Midland just snagged a $12.6 million federal grant to upgrade local airports, and the best part is that Washington is footing 90% of the bill. That means major infrastructure upgrades with barely a scratch on our local taxpayer wallets.
Wayfinding Signs
Midland is installing 49 new custom wayfinding signs to help folks navigate downtown parking, museums, and local hotspots. The best part? It's fully funded by hotel-motel taxes and partner contributions, meaning your local property taxes are completely off the hook.
