City Council

Council Hears Calls For Better Streets, More Transparency, And Stronger Traffic Enforcement

Princeton City Council met Monday, April 13, 2026, and the night centered on what residents see and feel day to day: road work, lighting, public records, traffic safety, and how city projects are being explained to the public. The meeting also included recognition for police staff and community partners, plus a major bond vote tied to White Wing Trails.

Public Works Truck Gets The Green Light

Council approved buying a dump truck for Public Works after staff said the city’s dump trailers are too limited and one has a structural failure. Interim Director Preston Jones said the new truck would more than double the department’s output, and staff noted it is already budgeted. The truck may also be used by other city departments, but Public Works said it will cover the cost.

Sixth Street Lift Station Accepted

Council accepted the Sixth Street lift station and related improvements after staff and engineers said the punch-list items were finished and the work met city standards. That clears the project off the city’s plate and moves it into normal service for residents in that area.
