    On February 10, 2026, the City Council received responses to questions from a February 3 meeting, primarily addressing pave cut inspections for the Green Ridge water company project and ARPA grant allocation. The city confirmed that Pennoni conducts weekly inspections of utility work, documents findings in reports tied to specific permits, and notifies utilities of deficiencies—with violations issued if issues are not timely addressed; temporary cold patch repairs are being used due to winter weather conditions preventing hot-mix asphalt installation. The administration also provided details on ARPA grant tracking through subrecipient check-ins and quarterly reports, and listed specific allocations to organizations including NeighborWorks (business façade, home buyer, and home rehabilitation programs totaling approximately $865,881) and United Neighborhood Centers (business façade and disaster relief totaling approximately $129,930).
