11/02/2026 City Council Meeting

The City of Avondale City Council meeting was held November 2, 2026. The council recognized the Goodyear Farms Historic Cemetery’s designation on the National Register of Historic Places, following a partnership with the P.W. Litchfield Heritage Center. Staff noted that the city completed an approximately $500,000 capital improvement project at the cemetery in 2020, covering parking-lot paving, a gate, security cameras, and lighting. The city and its partner plan to continue working on interpretive signage, but no budget or procurement action for that work was specified. The consent agenda passed 7–0; the transcript does not identify its individual items or any related spending decisions. No contract awards, RFPs, or vendor selections were identified.

During unscheduled public comment, a 13-year-old resident raised concerns about data centers’ water use, noise, and potential effects on residents; the council took no action on the comments. The meeting also included employee introductions and promotions, and recognition of city and community efforts to preserve the cemetery.»,
