The Siloam Springs Board of Directors will interact with other city officials for a workshop and planning commission report before and during its meeting Tuesday.

A workshop for a City Lake management plan is slated to begin at 6 p.m.

The city’s planning commission will give its annual report at the end of the board’s meeting Tuesday, according to the directors’ agenda. In other business, the board will:

• Review a public safety communicat­ions consulting contract from Buford Goff and Associates for $75,000.

• Place on its third reading an ordinance that will amend the city’s municipal code that would allow for the Sunday sale of beer. The amendment would allow small breweries, nano breweries and microbrewe­ry restaurant­s operating in accordance with state law to sell “beer, malt beverages, and hard cider for offpremise consumptio­n on any day of the week during all legal operating hours.”

• Place on its second reading an ordinance that would adopt minimum safety standards, rules and regulation­s for the Siloam Springs Municipal Airport. According to a city staff report, the safety standards manual was created “to provide airport users with documents representi­ng a compilatio­n of rules, regulation­s, standards, and general informatio­n governing their activities at the airport.” The same report read the minimum regulation­s manual was created “to ensure that entities that have been approved to provide commercial aeronautic­al services are not exposed to unfair or irresponsi­ble competitio­n.”

• Place on its first reading an ordinance that would amend a section of the city’s municipal code to rezone 3303 Cheri Whitlock Drive and the 15000 block of Stephens Road from an agricultur­e area to commercial and residentia­l area.
