Staff presented a fee ordinance aimed at new development that raises some tap and inspection charges (examples cited included a 5/8" meter line item shown as $2,800 and a typical new-residential total estimated at $6,320); staff emphasized the changes do not increase existing customers' water rates.

The council approved two rezoning ordinances (775‑25 and 776‑25) — a 2‑acre single‑family rezoning and a larger rezone to heavy industrial — and granted a conditional use permit (Resolution 1971‑25) allowing expanded sand and gravel mining at the Rankin site; approvals were made after planning staff presentations and limited public comment.
