City Council Voting Meeting - October 27th, 2026

The City of Prescott City Council voting meeting, held October 27, 2026 (as identified by the meeting title), included several procurement and capital-project decisions. Council approved the citywide water main replacement Phase 2 award to Mountain High Excavating (City Contract No. 2027-079; award amount not stated in the transcript) and a $12,000 post-design services amendment with Kimley-Horn (Contract No. 2023-144A6). It also approved the parking-garage elevator upgrade, with the two options totaling $279,340.20, and approved completing the city court facility as a full buildout, discussed at approximately $1.6 million, rather than phasing the work. The city manager reported that the FY27 capital program had 32 projects in design and seven under construction, and that 55 of 58 budgeted vehicles had been purchased. A proposed one-year, up-to-$65,000 media-production contract with Amaroma Productions was tabled for further review; councilmembers raised concerns about local responsiveness, travel costs, contract terms, and the opportunity to use local firms.

Council adopted Resolution 2026-2010 on regional stormwater projects with an amendment calling for development of local policies and ordinances alongside the long-term water management plan; a proposed immediate stormwater requirement for certain development applicants was not adopted at this meeting. The council also received a design update on the SR 89 corridor project, budgeted at $27 million, with debate focused on safety, turn restrictions, and the Willow Lake Road roundabout; no procurement award or project vote was identified in that discussion. Public commenters raised concerns about the city’s Flock surveillance system and alleged procurement-process issues, but no action on the program was taken.
