Top issues during term (20)
Fiscal Year 2026-27 budget priorities
No immediate fiscal impact — the ranked projects will be considered as the 2026-27 budget is built over the coming months.
State-mandated residential compatibility ordinance
Minimal — paid from the City Clerk's existing biannual code codification budget.
$1.25 million federal flood risk reduction grant
Brings $1.25 million in federal funding to the city.
Waste Management yard waste pickup service
Fully routed, more frequent pickups would cost roughly $1.20 per home per month, but the Council took no action on that idea.
Micromobility and E-Bike Regulation
Civil penalties provide a new enforcement mechanism; direct fiscal impact is minimal.
Norfolk Parkway improvements and D.R. Horton 'The Pines' traffic impacts
The developer, not taxpayers, pays an estimated $12-15 million for the improvements, though the city commits sewer service to the new development in perpetuity.

Costs $149,947 through a piggyback contract.
New Sewer Injection Well and Grant Funding
Nearly $17.7 million total for the well project, partially offset by grant funding.

$51,987.20 for materials from Fortiline Waterworks.
Renaming West Melbourne Community Park to Sandhill Crane Park
Mostly webpage and document updates; new park signage is estimated at about $30,775.
