over 1 year ago, Creswell Admin
Creswell City Council Recap. January 27th, 2025 Work Session
City Council Appointment Process: The application deadline for a new council member is February 5th, with a selection by February 10th. The process will involve candidates speaking, answering questions, and being evaluated for the role. Mayor Smith emphasized the need for transparency and fairness, ensuring that all candidates are aware of the time commitment. Council Training: The scheduled council training was postponed until February due to Councilor Morris' absence. Advocacy Trip to Salem: On January 28th, 2025, Mayor Smith, Interim City Manager Nebel, Council President Costilla, and Councilor Kremer will travel to Salem to advocate for funding, particularly for street improvements and addressing property taxes.
Committee Updates. Administration & Finance Committee: The Administration and Finance Committee will begin performance evaluations for city employees, including the municipal judge. Public Safety Committee: The Public Safety Committee will be meeting soon under the leadership of Councilor Kent. Transportation & Public Works Committee: The Transportation & Public Works Committee will hold its first meeting on February 12th, 2025. Park & Tree Advisory Board: The Parks and Tree Advisory Board has completed a park naming project and is planning for Earth Day in April. Airport Commission: Updates included the installation of security cameras, progress on a taxi lane project, and work on an upcoming master plan. Environmental restrictions have delayed a taxiway project, which is now set for 2026-2027.
Discussion Items. Street Improvement Plans: The Second Street improvement project, prioritizing road resurfacing and sidewalk installation, is being expedited to complete within one season. The project budget is a concern, with options for using reserve funds or creating a Local Improvement District (LID) to distribute costs among property owners. Annexation Request: A 3.14-acre property near Creswell High School is under consideration for annexation to accommodate residential development, with infrastructure development responsibilities falling on the developer.

The recruitment will focus on finding a candidate who reflects the community's needs, with a final resolution and job profile to be presented in February.
