Midway Regional Airport Receives Additional $40,000 for Legal Expenses
The council approved a supplemental appropriation of $40,000 to the Midway Regional Airport Fund for legal expenses. These expenses have exceeded the anticipated budget due to ongoing legal matters, necessitating additional funding. The money will be drawn from the Midway Regional Airport Reserve Fund, which has sufficient funds available. This follows a previous supplemental appropriation approved in December 2025 for the same purpose.

This is a procedural step to continue infrastructure development within the district.
Wauxahatchee Approves Historic Street Signs for Freedman's Town

This initiative aims to enhance the historic nature of the community on the east side of the city by adding traditional sign blades to 11 identified intersections. The cost is estimated at $400, using standard sign blanks, and is covered by the operational budget, as many signs already need replacement. The resolution passed unanimously.
