Shelby council to consider 7 ordinances, 1 resolution
The Shelby City Council is scheduled to take action on multiple ordinances and proposals during its Monday, June 16 meeting, as outlined in the agenda released for public review.
The council meets at 7 p.m. in council chambers at 29 Mack Ave.
Council members are expected to vote on the third reading of Ordinance 11-2025, which would authorize the sale of city-owned real estate -- the old Shelby firehouse that officials hope can be revitalized under private ownership. The city would need to sign off on any plans.
The measure also designates the Community Improvement Corporation of Shelby as the city's agent for the proposed eventual transaction.
The ordinance is being brought to a legislative third reading. Also slated for third reading and final passage is Ordinance 12-2025.
The legislation would amend Chapter 1042 of the city’s codified ordinances by modifying Section 1042.13 related to local limits on wastewater strength. The proposed amendment involves paragraph (C), per the documentation. This has already passed two legislative readings.
A related ordinance, numbered 13-2025, also awaits third reading and potential final passage. This measure would adjust Section 1044.09 of Chapter 1044 concerning septage receiving rates and fees. This is not described as affecting general Shelby customers.
Council will hold a first reading on Ordinance 15-2025, a proposed charter amendment to Section 53. If approved in subsequent readings, the change would be submitted to voters for ratification, the report shows. This was earlier postponed. It involves the filing deadline for Shelby local elections and moving up the timeframe by 15 days (90 to 75). Council is being asked to send the matter to voters to decide. Passage of such legislation by the council is needed first.
Additional first readings include Ordinance 18-2025, amending Chapter 446 governing off-highway vehicles and snowmobiles, and Ordinance 19-2025, which involves proposed changes to general parking regulations under Chapter 452.
Ordinance 17-2025, which is on its second reading, proposes updates to Section 1040.04 of the city’s water service regulations.
Specifically, it addresses additional charges to consumers residing outside city limits.
The council will also consider Resolution 21-2025, a measure to adopt the city's annual revenue budget for 2026.
Separately, a motion to accept the combined financial statement and the cash/investment reconciliation statement dated May 31 is scheduled under committee reports.
The Finance and Personnel Committee is expected to present the motion, with an intent to file and post it on the city’s website.
Other committees listed on the agenda include the Utilities and Streets Committee, the Community and Economic Development Committee, and the Safety Committee.
The agenda notes these committees but does not specify motions or legislative items attached to them.
City officials scheduled to provide reports include Shelby Mayor Steve Schag, Finance Director Brian Crum, and city Project Coordinator Joe Gies.
Other matters under unfinished business include a continuing discussion about the city’s old smokestack and its future.
The members of Shelby City Council are Steve McLaughlin, Nathan Martin, Eric Cutlip, Derrin Roberts and Charles Roub.
