The mayor announced that the city council approved an update to the city's service area plan, a document city officials said outlines projected growth and estimates the need for parks and recreation, public safety (police and fire), public works and other services to maintain quality of life.

"This plan helps project the growth of the city and estimates the need for growth in parks and recreation, public safety, police and fire response, public works, and other government services to make sure our quality of life matches our expected growth," the mayor said.
