What's on this agenda

Garner's January 27 work session centers on town finances and affordable housing. Davenport & Company, the town's financial advisor, presents an updated debt and capital model, and staff walk the council through capital projects being weighed for future Capital Improvement Plans -- both feeding into the council's February retreat.

The Affordable Housing Task Force presents its final recommendations, with council discussion on next steps held for that same retreat. The manager's report also updates the online Development Activity Map and previews February meeting agendas; the retreat is set for February 19-20 at White Deer Park Nature Center, with an Essentials of Municipal Government course February 26-27. No closed session is scheduled.
