Hendersonville Board of Mayor & Aldermen 11/9/2026

The Hendersonville Board of Mayor and Aldermen meeting was dated November 9, 2026, in the metadata, although the chair stated November 10 in the transcript. Procurement discussion centered on the Bradford Berry House and associated property: a citizen said five proposals had been submitted under RFP-0009 by September 14 and alleged that additional evaluation requirements were circulated to board members after submissions were opened. The speaker asked the city to cancel and reissue the RFP, allow proponents to present their proposals, and defer action on related measures. The transcript records no board decision on that request or award of the RFP. A committee report said Ordinance 2026-19, designating about 13.24 acres as a municipal park, advanced with a positive recommendation; a related measure concerning the house’s restoration and future use advanced with a neutral recommendation and was expected to return after the first of the year.

The Finance Committee discussed Ordinance 2026-21, which would establish non-residential impact fees for streets and related transportation infrastructure, and sent it to the board with a neutral recommendation; no vote on it appears in the transcript. The mayor also cited a previously successful $3.5 million park-improvement grant application, while the monthly report noted stormwater work was nearing its budgeted scope and paving was continuing. No new contract award or purchasing approval was identified. The board separately passed second reading of Ordinance 2026-18, authorizing a quitclaim deed for two city properties, unanimously.
