4 issues in development with low priority
Ornamental street lighting for new subdivisions
Three subdivisions — Abbey Ridge Phase 2, Mariner's Lux, and Deerbrook Crossing Phase 1 — get developer-funded ornamental street lights. Developers pay the full installation; the city only covers maintenance and energy, roughly $12 per light per month.
Official Map change west of Virginia Drive and Joseph Road
A never-built circular drive is being vacated due to wetlands, replaced with two cul-de-sacs. Deeds are already secured.

Two transitional housing permits, at 1201 S. 10th Street and 1222 S. 7th Street, were re-approved for another year after annual review.
Kinzel Wood Products right of first refusal
The city exercised an option and right of first refusal on property on S. Alverno Road held with Kinzel Wood Products.
