Top issues during term (15)(General)
Oversight of Bond-Funded Capital Projects
Could affect how taxpayer dollars are spent and managed on City construction projects.
Group Home Specific Use Permit
None identified for the city.
Historic District Expansion
None at this preliminary discussion stage.
Fire Department Promotions Process
Standard operational costs associated with administering civil service promotional examinations.
Public Safety Recruitment
Routine recruitment expenses are covered within existing departmental operating budgets.
Board Member Departure and Administrative Changes
Potential impact on city finances related to property acquisition or personnel decisions.
population growth
More people means more demand for services, which could mean higher taxes or fees down the line.
whistleblower lawsuit ruling
Good news for Denton's wallet – they won't have to pay out any damages from this lawsuit.
removal of racist language from city deed
No direct financial impact, but it's about cleaning up the city's image.
redistricting
It's unclear if this will cost us more or less money, but we'll keep an eye on it.
legal ruling
Get ready for your taxes to potentially go up to cover this massive payout.
Pride Month proclamation
No direct financial impact is mentioned, but it could affect tourism or local business support.
marijuana ordinance
Don't expect any new taxes or fees from this, as it's just getting rid of a non-working law.
marijuana ordinance repeal
It's unclear if this repeal will save the city money or just shift costs around, but residents are definitely feeling the pinch of lost local control.
city manager retirement
We don't know yet how much finding her replacement will cost the city.
