The Bloomington Redevelopment Commission met on October 19, 2026. It unanimously approved the October 9 claims and October 5 meeting minutes. The Commission also unanimously approved Resolution 26-80, authorizing funds for incidental expenses needed to complete the secondary plat for Hopewell South, including easement-vacation fees estimated at $600–$900. Staff said the plat and construction plans were being finalized, with infrastructure bidding hoped for by late 2026 or early 2027 and housing-related work potentially starting in spring 2027.

The Commission considered Resolution 26-81 for an approximately $11,000 partial reimbursement toward installing a fire-suppression system in Visit Bloomington’s Fourth Street garage unit. Staff said the cost would come from bond proceeds, with about $449,696 remaining in that fund; the motion was made and seconded, but the transcript does not capture the complete vote result. In general discussion, commissioners sought a volunteer to help evaluate responses to an open architectural-services RFP for the Bloomington Police Department project at 714 South Rogers; the transcript does not provide the closing date or identify respondents.
