After being tabled during the last regular meeting, Nome’s City Council will again deliberate on an ordinance regarding snow and ice removal on City sidewalks. Another ordinance that could be passed tonight would amend the Nome code of ordinances to include the definition of a junk motor vehicle.
To commence tonight’s meeting, the Council will discuss seven different budgetary requests during a work session, including a mini excavator, a tractor trailer, and a side dump.
Also on the agenda are eight new ordinances, mostly regarding City of Nome budgets for fiscal year 2018. Through a resolution, the Council could determine how much money it’s going to contribute to Nome Public Schools this year.
In other business, the Mill rate for the City of Nome could be lowered this year, if the Council passes a resolution to reduce the rate from 11 mills to 10. Before the meeting adjourns, a public hearing will be held on Geo Care’s application to renew its correctional facility permit for Seaside.
Tonight’s regular meeting begins at 7pm, immediately following the conclusion of a 6pm work session.
