Town Council — 2025-02-06

The Centreville Town Council met on February 6, 2025, approved the January 16 minutes, and held a closed session on personnel and legal advice with no actions taken. The Finance Officer reported most departments have spent about 50% of their FY25 budgets. The Director of Public Works reviewed the trash/recycling contract (can be extended through June 2026 with plans to rebid before expiration), outlined a 5–8 year sidewalk repair triage policy to be developed, and reported satisfaction with the yard waste contractor. Two ordinances had first readings: Ordinance 01-2025 would amend Chapter 158 to allow 48-hour street parking for non-self-propelled vehicles (boats, boat trailers, work trailers, recreational vehicles) with council members expressing concerns about properties without driveways and suggesting size/length language changes; Ordinance 02-2025 would extend a temporary moratorium on projects over seven EDUs while zoning and sewer allocation updates are considered—Council member Worth proposed six months (was three months in the draft), other members expressed concern, and a Council member asked for a Planning Commission memo outlining how code changes would be addressed. In reports, the Planning Commission discussed Planned Neighborhood code changes and noted GTI did not meet tree canopy obligations and will either plant 23 trees in town or pay.
