The Geneva City Council will meet Wednesday for a meeting that will cover several critical topics, including parking reforms, financial updates and plans for community development. The meeting will begin at 7 p.m. at City Hall, with a live broadcast available on the city’s YouTube channel.

Among the key points of discussion is a review of the city’s parking rules. Council members are expected to provide feedback to city staff, who are working to update parking ordinances that cover both street parking and garages. The discussion will address current community complaints and suggestions, with the goal of refining Geneva’s parking policies to better serve residents and businesses.

City Comptroller Adam Blowers will present the third quarter financial update, providing insight into Geneva’s fiscal health and budget projections. This segment is expected to provide council members with a detailed understanding of revenues and expenses, informing decisions on budget adjustments as the city looks toward 2025. Additionally, the meeting will include an agenda item proposing a public hearing to modify sewer rates, reflecting anticipated adjustments to support ongoing maintenance of public services.

Council will also discuss possible changes to the Planning Board structure, considering a reduction in the number of members from nine to seven to streamline its functions. Another proposal seeks to support the city’s application for the Restore NY state funding program, which would boost local development and revitalization efforts. This measure will also involve holding a public hearing, which will give residents a say in Geneva’s development plans.

Rounding out the evening’s agenda is a resolution to adopt the Ontario County Hazard Mitigation Plan, a collaborative effort to address regional safety and disaster preparedness needs.
