North Little Rock City Council Meeting 10-26-26

The North Little Rock City Council met on October 26, 2026, including a special meeting called to consider police communications equipment. The council unanimously adopted Resolution 26-246, waiving formal bidding requirements and authorizing payment to Motorola Solutions for 175 police radios, related equipment, and software; members said the existing radios were obsolete and noted the purchase had been funded in 2023. The council also approved waiving formal bidding requirements for a North Little Rock Police Department vehicle from Everett Chevrolet and four vehicles from Dufal Ford. It declared certain city-owned items and equipment surplus for auction. No dollar amounts were stated in the transcript.

Other business included approval of a city property-tax levy for police and fire pension funds, the library, and the general fund; adoption of an amendment updating building regulations to the 2026 electrical code; and zoning actions, including creation of a C-7 Urban District and revision of the zoning map to remove areas outside the city’s jurisdiction. The council held a public hearing on proposed nuisance-abatement liens and agreed to hold the grass-cutting lien measure for follow-up with the affected property owners and city staff.
