At its October 12, 2026 meeting, the Fishers City Council adopted the unchanged 2027 municipal budget, including a $400,000 neighborhood vibrancy match for sidewalk and concrete repairs and a 3% personnel increase. Council also approved the 2027 salary ordinance, which raises police and fire clothing allowances to a maximum of $1,400 annually and increases longevity pay for years 21–25 to $1,500 per year, with a maximum annual longevity payout of $13,000. The council approved a 25-year triple-net lease structure for the fieldhouse project with the Fishers Redevelopment Commission and Buckingham; payments are to begin after substantial completion, and the facility will transfer to the RDC after the lease payments. The transcript records no new competitive solicitation or vendor award.

Council approved a confirmatory resolution establishing JD Sports’ property as an economic revitalization area for abatements, and approved fiscal plans and annexation ordinances for the Henen, Randall Sisters, and Walters properties. The Community Health/Lifepoint proposal for a 120-bed inpatient behavioral health hospital received a first reading on its rezoning request; final consideration was described as forthcoming. The Heart and Soul Church project was delayed 30 days to allow additional staff research.
