Ordinance Allowing City Officials to Conduct Business with the City Approved
The council approved an ordinance (ORD-2025-1234, ZC-2025-001) to permit council members, officials, and employees to do business with the city, specifically mentioning Gabe Tishler, who is a recurring producer for the fire department. The ordinance passed its first reading and the second and third readings were waived.

The council considered the appointment of Linda Haskins to the Parks and Recreation Commission. Ms. Haskins, a CPA, was recommended by the nominating committee and expressed her lifelong involvement in recreational sports and use of city facilities. She believes her business experience as a CPA would be beneficial to the commission.
City Considers First Amendment Protections for AI Use in Workplace
An ordinance (21 of 2026) was introduced regarding amendments to the city's personnel policies to establish First Amendment religious protections for the workplace use of agentic and generative artificial intelligence (AI). This ordinance is described as future-proofing and protecting workers from being forced to use technology that violates their religious principles. The city would not be responsible for paying for alternative software if an employee claims an exemption. This would be the first city to implement such a policy.
City Approves Funding for New 'Game Time' Entrance Road
The city council discussed and approved a resolution (30 of 2026) authorizing an agreement with the Cabat Parks and Recreation Commission to support the completion of an additional entryway and road for 'Game Time' at the grounds. This project involves moving shale from a large pond on the Lion campus to build the road, with costs estimated at $251,000. The aim is to provide a primary entrance to Game Time and potentially accommodate a bike trail, curb, and lighting, with funds to be reimbursed to parks.
City to Pursue Federal Funds for Highway 38 Roundabout Design
The city expressed its willingness to utilize federal aid Surface Transportation Program (STP STBG) funds for the design of a roundabout north of Exit 21 on Highway 38, in conjunction with the upcoming opening of Irwin Parkway and Willie Ray. This is a grant application to support previous applications, with the goal of securing future funding for construction once the design is complete. The project aims to alleviate anticipated traffic congestion.
