Top issues during term (14)(General)
Republic Services trash contract extension and rate increase
A monthly bill increase is coming at the next council meeting, though the amount wasn't stated.
Comprehensive plan public engagement
No dollar figure is attached yet, but the plan will shape how Fairmont spends public money on growth and improvements over the next five years.
Blight and housing quality
A fee could generate revenue for the agency, but collection challenges make the actual yield highly uncertain.
Team Fairmont Mini Grant program
Up to $21,000 in total grant funding for community projects.
Lamar billboard lease on city-owned land near Palatine Park
Lease payments to the city were not disclosed.
Locust Avenue Flood Property Demolition
Demolition costs will be handled through the university partnership; city costs aren't specified.
City Manager personnel practices allegations
Taxpayers could see added costs from turnover, interim staffing, or delayed development reviews, though no dollar figure is given.
property demolition and land dispute settlement
Fairmont taxpayers will cover the settlement and demolition costs, but the source doesn't say how much.
eminent domain
Taxpayers may cover acquisition and legal costs, but the city gains a redevelopment asset that could eventually generate new tax revenue.
strategic planning session
The plan will steer future tax dollars toward chosen priorities, but no specific spending amounts are set yet.
city leadership appointments
New council members can shift how Fairmont spends taxpayer money on roads and city services, so budget choices may get a fresh look.
livestock and beekeeping ordinances
Don’t expect a big wallet hit—this is mostly about permits and rules, not a new tax.
city manager appointment
Your local tax dollars pay for city operations, and Blosser will help steer how that budget is managed.
building collapse
Taxpayers could get stuck with inspection, emergency response, and demolition bills, while the property owner faces repair or liability costs.
