Thursday evening marks the last Town Council meeting for Councilwoman Ginny Dickey, and the agenda is set for her to possibly get some closure on items she has advocated for during the eight years she has served.
Early in her tenure Dickey urged the council to consider covered parking with solar panels for town facilities in the civic center to generate energy for the buildings.
The council will consider a motion to proceed with requests for proposals for a solar photovoltaic energy system for Cutillo Plaza.

Council meeting Thursday

Thursday evening marks the last Town Council meeting for Councilwoman Ginny Dickey, and the agenda is set for her to possibly get some closure on items she has advocated for during the eight years she has served.
Early in her tenure Dickey urged the council to consider covered parking with solar panels for town facilities in the civic center to generate energy for the buildings.
The council will consider a motion to proceed with requests for proposals for a solar photovoltaic energy system for Cutillo Plaza.
Dickey has also urged the council to pursue a storm water fee to offset the costs of implementing regulations mandated by the federal government and state.
The council is to consider a $3 per month fee on each parcel to offset the costs of environmental requirements.
Dickey said the environmental fee is something that can benefit the community going forward, as is the case with solar panels on covered parking.
The council also will consider awarding the bid for reconstruction of Saguaro Boulevard to Nesbitt Contracting in the amount of $6.7 million.
The town will sell up to $8.2 million in voter-approved general obligation bonds to fund the project.
Work on the nine-month project is expected to begin early next year.
The council will also consider direction to staff regarding project approvals related to Salt River Project Municipal Aesthetics Fund requests.
The council meets Thursday, Nov. 20, at 6:30 p.m. in council chambers at Town Hall.
Thursday is also the final meeting for Councilman Tait Elkie, who chose not to seek re-election for a second term.
