Noblesville Common Council - 7/14/26

The City of Noblesville Common Council held a meeting on July 14, 2026, where several procurement and budget-related matters were discussed. The Roads Committee provided updates on ongoing infrastructure projects including street rehabilitation, sidewalk improvements, and a pedestrian tunnel design agreement. The Finance Committee reported on the city's financial status, including a $4 million grant award for Momentum Boulevard. Significant procurement actions included the introduction of ordinances and resolutions related to the issuance of up to $26 million in sewage works revenue bonds to fund major wastewater treatment plant upgrades and lift station improvements, as well as a lease rental bond ordinance and lease agreement for financing a new police headquarters with a guaranteed maximum price of $50.15 million.
