Regular City Commission Meeting - 4 June, 2026

The City of Eustis, Florida held a regular City Commission meeting on June 4, 2026, which included extensive public commentary primarily focused on community concerns about police department leadership and local development projects. The commission reviewed economic development leases and discussed a proposed Planned Subdivision Project (PSP) along Eustis Airport Road, addressing issues such as traffic capacity, stormwater management, and flood risks. The commission also considered updates to water and wastewater rates and adopted new fund balance reserve policies to ensure fiscal stability, including increasing the emergency fund from $1 million to $1.5 million. Additionally, the commission discussed legal services, debating whether to issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) for an in-house city attorney or continue with the current outside counsel, ultimately deciding to explore both options simultaneously. No contract awards or vendor selections were finalized during this meeting, but several procurement-related action items, including the fund balance policy adoption and legal services procurement strategy, were addressed.
