The North Platte City Council will meet Tuesday evening to consider several community-impacting items, including a rezoning request, updates to the city’s bulky trash collection ordinance, and multiple property sales.
The meeting begins at 5:30 p.m. at City Hall with an invocation from Rev. Jonathan Sorensen of St. Patrick’s Catholic Church, followed by the Pledge of Allegiance and roll call.
Among the items on the consent agenda, council members will review minutes from previous meetings, the August treasurer’s report, and several agreements — including a one-year interlocal renewal with Lincoln County for network services and a human resources services contract with Zelle. Mayor Brandon Kelliher is also expected to appoint Tony Miller as the city’s new Utilities Manager.
Under the regular agenda, council will hold the second reading of an ordinance to rezone property at 4684 and 4602 Rodeo Road from agricultural to highway commercial use. Another proposal up for discussion would amend the city’s bulky trash collection rules, potentially changing how large-item pickups are handled.
A series of public hearings are also scheduled for the potential sale of several city-owned properties, including 716 W. 8th Street, 1902 N. Sheridan, 603 S. Maple, 2220 W. 4th Street, and 1015 N. Bryan.
The council may also consider authorizing payments to Van Kirk Bros., Level LLC, and Paulsen Inc. before adjourning. A closed session could be held if necessary to discuss personnel, real estate, or legal matters.
Residents are encouraged to attend in person or watch the meeting live on the city’s YouTube channel.
