The Town of Eatonville Town Council meeting on September 15, 2026, included updates on infrastructure projects, a private data center under construction, and town legal services. Town staff reported a possible bank line of credit to advance approximately $45 million in infrastructure projects, with costs expected to flow back through reimbursable grants; no financing approval or procurement award was recorded. A resident raised quality-control and inspection concerns about a forthcoming water and sewer project estimated at $35–50 million. The data-center representative reported progress toward final inspections, discussed drainage and sidewalk issues, and said the company had contributed about $30,000 to an Orange County sidewalk fund. Council members also discussed construction delays and requested better communication and a community tour; no data-center construction contract action was taken.

The council approved Resolution 2026-50 to retain Endow Law for six months at a $10,000 monthly retainer, covering legal services for the council and specified boards. It also approved Resolution 2026-48 authorizing a formal request to the U.S. Postal Service for a contractual evaluation, cost audit, and ZIP-code realignment review of Eatonville’s contract postal unit. A proposed ordinance permitting farmers markets in C3 commercial districts was tabled 4–1 so council members could review a map; a rental-home registration ordinance was tabled after the town attorney advised that state law preempts the proposed local regulation. No vendor selection or construction bid award was identified.
