Top issues during term (12)
city council election
Your wallet isn’t directly on the ballot, but the winner will help decide city spending and services that can affect taxes and fees.
council appointment
There’s no direct cost or savings tied to the appointment itself, though Sole will now vote on city budget and spending decisions.
city staffing appointment
The planner's decisions can affect permit timelines, development costs, and the city's tax base, though no direct cost is specified.
mayoral election
No specific budget or tax impact is spelled out yet, but a new mayor can shift spending priorities, so watch the first budget.
city manager appointment
Your local tax dollars pay for city operations, and Blosser will help steer how that budget is managed.
building and development ordinances
Depending on the details, you could face new permitting costs, compliance expenses, or delays—or save time if the rules make approvals clearer.
mayor censure
There’s no direct price tag attached to a censure, but the political friction could slow decisions and create staff time costs if disputes escalate.
anti-discrimination fairness ordinance
The city isn’t likely to see a big budget hit, though businesses and landlords may need to update policies or train staff to comply.
council appointments and ordinances
For homeowners, ADUs could mean rental income or a way to house family, while the city may see added property-tax base but also new infrastructure and enforcement costs.
livestock and beekeeping ordinances
Don’t expect a big wallet hit—this is mostly about permits and rules, not a new tax.
park project groundbreaking
The update doesn't include a price tag, so it's unclear how much city money the Norwood Park project will consume.
city council departure
The immediate dollar impact is unclear, but a changed council could shift spending priorities and how city tax dollars are allocated.
