• Approval of Fellowship Church picnic permit, Oct. 18, 2025 — approved. Organizers said the event is free to the public and will use the church’s grassy lot; no public‑works barricades requested.

• Approval of budget timetable/draft schedule — approved. Staff said the draft follows the same schedule as prior years and will require frequent weekly meetings starting in November.

• Miller Street lot bid opening — no bids received. The council noted no bids had been received for two Miller Street lots (parcels referenced) and directed staff to regroup and explore neighbor outreach or other sale options.

• Motion to lay over residential real‑property regulation ordinance (additional consideration) — moved and laid over to the next agenda; staff reported additional amendments and requested input from Commissioner Prentice and others.

• Motion to go into executive session — approved. Council recessed to executive session for a personnel item (agenda item 2).

Where the meeting recorded a roll call, approval was noted as carried by affirmative votes; the transcript did not include a full recorded roll‑call list for every item. For items with little discussion, council typically moved, seconded and approved on voice or roll‑call vote. If the council takes subsequent formal votes to change rates or implement fees (for example, garbage billing rates tied to the Rock River contract), staff said those will appear on a future agenda with ordinance language and explicit billing impacts.
