Ypsilanti City Council Tuesday night signed off on a handful of budget amendements that direct funds toward non-motorized plan projects, renovation work at the Freighthouse, and future traffic calming projects.
Council member Pete Murdock says the $220,000 for the Freighthouse will go toward upgrading mechanical systems.
Other amendments include spending $100,000 over the next two budget years on non-motorized projects like the Border-to-Border Trail and a mid-block pedestrian crossing on Michigan Avenue near Water Street.
A similar amount will be set aside for future neighborhood requests for traffic calming devices such as speed humps.
