City of Port Huron November 9, 2026

The City of Port Huron City Council meeting on November 9, 2026 included annual presentations from the Beautification Commission and farmers market, a Chamber of Commerce presentation, an economic progress report, public comments, and council business. No contract awards, RFPs, vendor selections, or bid approvals were identified. The farmers market reported receiving grant support for programs that provided participating farmers with $1,000 business stipends and $300 marketing stipends; it also reported $19,692.73 in fresh-produce donations through a grant-supported program. The market has applied for a Michigan Good Seed Fund grant to buy four additional tents, which could accommodate eight more vendors; the application outcome was pending. A resident proposed a roughly $40,000 pilot program for paid winter sidewalk snow removal, but council took no action on the proposal.

The city manager’s economic report cited $651 million in new investment and $42.5 million in new housing development, including the fully funded $18.5 million River District Apartments project, and said contingency funds had supported deferred capital and infrastructure projects. A resident also referred to $98,000 spent on restriping school crosswalks and requested further street work; this was not presented as a new council procurement decision. Council approved the October 26 meeting minutes and a resolution confirming single-lot special assessments for special trash pickup. No procurement-related vote or spending authorization was identified.
