Adopt Resolution No. 106-06

Why This Vote Matters
The city voted to accept ownership of new roads built by Toll Brothers in the Seacliff Estates development, meaning the city will now maintain these streets. Eight council members approved the handover, with only Councilmember Butt voting against it. This is a standard process when developers build new infrastructure as part of housing projects - the city takes over the roads once construction is complete so residents can receive normal city services like street cleaning and repairs. The vote was largely routine, though Butt's dissent suggests some concern about the arrangement.
