The Naperville City Council meeting on October 20, 2026, approved several procurement items.

The council also approved an electric utility project for boring services and electric conduit construction with MEI Electric Company, Inc., for $19,867,145.69; the motion passed 9–0.

The council adopted an update to the bicycle and pedestrian plan with a feasibility study for a bicycle and pedestrian tunnel under the railroad tracks between Washington Street and Mill Street added to the plan. The plan is a framework for possible future projects, not authorization or funding for construction; staff said individual projects would receive further review, public engagement, and council consideration, including through future budget processes. Public discussion also addressed the city’s electric-utility vision and neighborhood drainage concerns, but no related procurement action was identified.
