The Salisbury City Council legislative and open work session (meeting title dated Jan. 9, 2026; metadata lists Nov. 10, 2026) reviewed a proposed FY 2023 Community Development Block Grant amendment. Staff proposed canceling the $19,000 homeless-services case manager activity and $50,000 Ann Street Village construction-rehabilitation activity, and reprogramming the combined $69,000 for the purchase and installation of gates and replacement fencing at Ann Street Village. The work is intended to avoid disturbing soil at a site affected by brownfield restrictions. Public comment was scheduled to remain open through Dec. 2, with council action tentatively planned for Dec. 14; no final approval or procurement award occurred at this session.

Council also discussed forming a data-center task force, including its membership and a proposed reporting timeline; considered a vape-shop zoning ordinance, with staff asked to return with revisions and legal analysis of a sunset provision; and discussed rezoning properties along Fitzwater Street. By motion and second, the rezoning item was tabled until the next work session. The session also included discussion of pursuing a change in Maryland law concerning tax differentials. No other contract awards or purchasing approvals were identified.
