The Hammond Redevelopment Commission met on October 20, 2026. The commission approved Resolution 2026-12, authorizing acceptance of property conveyances at 727 and 729 Sibley Street, and approved the register of claims dated September 4 through October 20, covering claims R69268–R69520; no aggregate claims amount is stated in the transcript. Both actions passed by five votes in favor. The commission also noted that it is working toward closing on two downtown properties approved at the prior meeting, including 475 Fayette Street for Tudy’s Fish and Chicken.

The commission approved two Circle R Mechanical proposals for HVAC work at the Towle Theater, 5205 Hohman Avenue: preventive maintenance and a separate repair involving failing igniters. The stated proposal amounts were $1,412.50 and $1,417, respectively; during the motion, the first amount was also stated as $1,400.50, so the transcript contains a discrepancy. The approvals passed unanimously, five to zero. The commission also voted to move its November 3 meeting to November 5 because of Election Day.
