The City Council of Henderson held a regular meeting on August 4, 2026, which included a significant procurement discussion regarding the award of a construction contract for the renovation of the city's animal care and control facilities. The council approved a $5.8 million contract with Core Construction for the renovations, with an overall project budget of $8 million to cover contingencies, furniture, fixtures, equipment, permit fees, and moving costs. The project includes new quarantine areas, expanded medical space, and improved kennel capacity, with temporary animal housing planned at the Mosier Building during construction. The council also addressed right-of-way vacation and zoning matters related to KB Homes developments, with appropriate abstentions due to conflicts of interest. Additionally, the council approved resolutions to transfer private activity bond caps totaling over $24 million and approved two bill draft requests for the 2027 legislative session aimed at expanding local improvement district financing options and enhancing protections for crime victims. The meeting concluded with public comments and scheduling of future meetings.
