Fayetteville City Council Preview: July 16, 2024
The Fayetteville City Council is set to convene on July 16, 2024, addressing a range of pivotal issues at this critical meeting.
One key proposal up for consideration is a cost-sharing deal with Washington Regional Medical Services for constructing a railway at Futall Drive and Gregg Avenue. This project carries a maximum budget of 0,000. The city’s aviation sector is also seeking approval to secure a Federal Aviation Administration design grant worth 8,500, which would cover 90% of the expenses for designing and soliciting bids for a planned extension of a taxiway at Drake Field.
In addition to these significant infrastructure projects, the city council will review a citizen petition pushing for a referendum to permit the sale of alcohol for off-site consumption on Sundays in Fayetteville. This could mark a significant change in the city’s policy.
Outside of these notable agenda items, the City Council will also review multiple administrative updates. These include adopting the Fayetteville Climate Action Plan and amending stormwater management and drainage codes, appeals, and urban residential design standards. These changes aim to enhance the overall sustainability and livability of Fayetteville.
