Greer (SC) City Council Meeting, November 10, 2026

Greer City Council’s regular meeting on November 10, 2026, included a procurement decision approving a $9,689,790 guaranteed maximum price (GMP) for the Gross Meadow Fire Station at 701 Gross Meadow Road. Hogan Construction Group was selected through the construction-manager-at-risk process after the city received eight qualifications submissions and selected three firms to present. The project will be funded through the Corporation for Greer Fund; the GMP includes the project’s specialty equipment and furniture. Council approved the GMP unanimously. Staff said the contract could be signed within 7–10 days, with completion targeted for December 2027. Discussion covered the facility’s size and future staffing needs, contingency, and cost comparisons with the Suba Road station. Staff also reported that the Suba Road and Police Training Facility projects had returned a combined $475,000 in savings, which will be applied to project costs and debt service rather than reallocated elsewhere.

Other business included approval of a zoning change for 104 Albert Street, consideration of the 2027 council meeting schedule, and unanimous reappointments to the Greer Housing Authority Board and as associate judge. In public forum, a resident urged safeguards and audits for Flock camera access; the administrator noted an intentional 90-day pause and said public comment is expected November 24. Another resident raised access, evacuation, and traffic-safety concerns on Bible Brook Drive, including the closed bridge; staff had previously discussed a possible corridor study and federal engineering funds, but no funding or project action was approved at this meeting.
