The ordinance was tabled until the August meeting when it will be read for the third and final time.
The council also approved a resolution to add Fawn Lane to the city’s current street overlay project. The budget will be amended by $30,000, the estimated cost of the project, with the funds coming from the city’s one-cent sales tax.
