City Approves Sidewalk Expansion Project in Old Town Neighborhood with ODOT Grant
The council approved a grant project with the Oklahoma Department of Transportation (ODOT) for the construction of sidewalks in the Old Town neighborhood, specifically along Sunny Lane Road (between SE 15th and SE 29th Streets) and Vicki Street (between 15th Street and Sunny Lane). The project, which faced cost increases post-COVID, will now connect existing sidewalk gaps and create new connections, including a route between Dell City Elementary and Dell City Middle School, prioritizing student safety. The project is an 80-20 match, with ODOT covering the majority of the cost. Discussions included the potential for wider sidewalks and ADA compliance.
Dell City Overhauls Housing Inspection Program and Terminates Moratorium
The council approved Ordinance Number 1457, which repeals and replaces Section 5-130 (Housing Inspection Program) and Section 5-133 (Initiation or Continuation of Utility Services). This ordinance addresses lawful residential occupancy and safety compliance, as well as utility service requirements. Following this approval, Resolution Number 06-15-22026 was also approved, terminating the moratorium on the enforcement of the housing inspection program. The resolution states that the moratorium is no longer necessary following the repeal and replacement of Section 5-130.

The Dell City Economic Development Authority (DCEDA) discussed initiatives to foster business growth and community engagement. Key points included the rebranding and reopening of 'Munyquita's' as 'Adrian Zuli's Mexican and Cuban restaurant', the reopening of 'Castle Rose Studios', and efforts to make Dell City more business-friendly by removing 'holdbacks'. The DCEDA also noted a successful nonprofit event and discussed upcoming legislative session updates. Additionally, a block party hosted by Dell City Church of Nazarene was announced.
MSA Addresses Bulk Trash Confusion, Approves Water Plant Upgrades, and CNG Truck Acquisition
During the Municipal Services Authority (MSA) meeting, discussions covered various utility-related topics. Residents expressed confusion regarding the bulk trash pickup schedule, with clarification provided that pickup occurs during the first full week of the month, not necessarily the first calendar day. The importance of residents placing trash carts correctly and the availability of additional carts for a nominal fee ($3/month) were emphasized to manage waste and protect city workers. Additionally, plans for replacing water treatment plant filters (Filter #4, then #1 and #3) were discussed, with RFPs to be released soon to ensure timely replacement and contractual adherence. A new CNG-powered dump truck, funded by a DEQ grant, is expected within 4-6 weeks to improve air quality.
