CITY MANAGER REPORT
• FY2017 budget preparation began about a month ago. Staff is in the second round of
reviews. Will be bringing the budget before the commission in the next month.
• Working on funding mechanisms for the floodwall project. Hope to have a successful
CDBG grant application that will be used toward funding the project. The City has heard
that Washington is looking at reauthorizing the project which means the City could get
funding from the federal government to help with the project.
• This year's American Quilter's Society show was another successful event.
• City Engineer Rick Murphy reported construction for the Olivet Church Road
Improvement Project has started again. Work is being completed on the east side of
Olivet Church Road headed back toward Cairo Road. Construction to widen a section of
Olivet Church Road to a three -lane beginning at U.S. 60 toward James Sanders
Boulevard will begin in the next couple of weeks.
