Moses Lake seeks citizen advice
The second of two scheduled public bearings to gather public input on community development will be held during today’s 8 p.m. Moses Lake City Council meeting.
The council called for the hearings to consider the citizen input for community development block grants which are available under the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974.
At the initial hearing Sept. 28, the only input was from Ray Diaz, who asked if it was to be a union project. Councilman Kent Jones informed him the hearings were to determine which projects could be done and that his question did not pertain to that topic.
With no further comments from the public, the hearing was continued until today.
Among other items the council is to consider will be the first reading of a proposed subdivision ordinance. Among other things this ordinance will require developers to pave streets within the projects they are building.
The meeting will be in the city hall council room.
