A long slate of new business items awaits the Bowie City Council when it meets at 6 p.m. Nov. 3 in the council chambers.

The council workshop will be conducted prior to the regular agenda reviewing agenda items, items of interest from the council and the city manager’s report.

A revised fee schedule for the Bowie Community Center will be reviewed, along with a updated set of rules and regulations.

T.J. Jones, owner of The Rack, a downtown restaurant on Mason Street, will make a request to extend the hours in the city ordinance regarding alcohol sales. City Manager Ricky Tow said the owner would like to extend from 1 a.m. to 2 a.m. on Saturday nights.

The present ordinance allows the sale of alcohol until midnight Monday-Friday and Sunday and through 1 a.m. on Saturday nights.

An ordinance amending the code of ordinances for electric rates will be presented for council action.

Two weeks ago, the council voted to implement a new rate structure that decreases the electric rate across the rate categories by nearly two percent.

The new rate also will break out the specifics of the rate so customers can see exactly what they are paying for.

In other new business, the city will cast its votes for the Montague County Tax Appraisal District director’s election; confirm the city’s investment policy; and receive the hotel/motel year-end report for 2014-15.

There is only one old item of business, discussion and approval of a variance for the 123-acre Bowie Economic Development Business Park for road, storm drain and sidewalk. The BEDC would like to build one road down the center..
