Top issues during term (20)
New Recreation Center CMAR and renovation timeline
Pre-construction fees of $15,000–$30,000 now; full construction contract (roughly $20 million GMP) to come later.

$50,000 audit cost now; potential $4-5 million in upgrades funded largely by guaranteed utility savings.
Auto parts and accessory sales SUP at 4177 Main Street

The project costs $505,287.21, about $230,000 less than the next-lowest bid, and comes from already-budgeted CIP funds.
Precious metals and coin dealer SUP at 5000 Main Street
This should bring in a nice chunk of change for the city through increased sales tax revenue.

Oncor Electrical Infrastructure and Street Lighting
$289,465.
Gateway Centre North PD-30 amendments
