Town Council - Regular Meeting

Tuesday, April 28, 2026

The Town Council approved a supplemental appropriation of money to various funds for the 2026 budget year, reducing the overall budget by over $39 million, primarily due to de-appropriating funds for the water treatment plant. The Council also issued a proclamation on public safety for all residents of Erie, affirming commitment to safety and dignity regardless of immigration status. A public hearing on rezoning a property within the Sierra Vista Minor Subdivision was held, but the applicant withdrew the request after council members expressed concerns about compatibility with surrounding residential areas and traffic safety.
