Top issues during term (6)
city council member profile
No direct cost or savings are attached—it’s just a webpage.
school crossing guard hiring
The city will take on part-time wages for crossing guards, a modest municipal cost tied to school-zone safety.
road construction
The city picks up the tab for the speed tables, so the direct cost lands on public funds rather than individual drivers—though slower speeds may mean fewer crash-related costs over time.
Old Frankfort Pike ordinance
There’s no dollar figure in the source, but the ordinance could affect costs for property owners, developers, or public road upkeep depending on what it requires.
urban tree canopy
There's no dollar figure here, but tree canopy can influence property values, energy bills, and public-health costs—so it's not just a landscaping line item.
merged government anniversary
There’s no direct financial impact here—just possible minor costs for commemorative events or communications.
