The Agenda: City Council to consider farmers market expansions

🥕 Expanding the Saturday market to the east along Mountain Street. The market currently takes place along the four streets on the downtown square.

🗓️ Allowing for Tuesday night markets from 2:30-10pm.

🎄 Extending the market season, which runs from April to Thanksgiving, to begin in March and end on Christmas.

💰 The council will also vote whether to change the city's policy to allow for payouts of more than $100,000 for water and wastewater damage if the city's insurance adjustor deems the claim valid.

• A resident recently requested the city pay about $130,000 after the resident's home and belongings sustained sewer damage, but city ordinance only allowed it to pay up to $100,000. The council can make the new ordinance, if approved, retroactive to apply to this claim, according to a memo from city attorney Kit Williams.

📍 If you go: 5:30pm at City Hall or online.
