The Golden City Council will hold a 5PM study session and a 6:30PM business meeting at City Hall on April 14, 2026. The agenda includes discussions on managed parking in the Parfet Park area, a report from the fire department on the impacts of increased funding, and consent matters such as intergovernmental agreements and vehicle purchases.

Why it matters

These City Council meetings are important for residents to stay informed on local issues and policies that impact the community, such as parking management, public safety funding, and infrastructure investments.

The details

The study session will cover a proposal for a managed parking system in the area around Parfet Park, the Golden Mill, and the future Clayworks development. This is in response to high parking demand in the area and a transportation demand management plan for Clayworks that allows less on-site parking. The Fire Chief will also report on the impacts of increased funding approved by voters in 2023 to add more staff. The consent agenda includes several intergovernmental agreements and vehicle purchases.

• The meeting begins at 5PM with public comment.
• The consent agenda items will be approved with one vote.
• The second reading of a supplemental appropriation to the 2026 budget will occur on April 28th.

What’s next

The City Council will vote on the new Comprehensive Plan and amendments to the Council Rules at the meeting.
