The session also included a detailed update on the Citizens Convenience Center capital improvement project, confirming it remains on schedule and within the $525,000 budget, with construction expected to complete by mid-December 2026 and full relocation from the North Carolina Railroad right-of-way by March 1, 2027. Additionally, council discussed the formation of a new advisory committee to oversee council-related expenses and ethics, considering scope, membership, and meeting logistics, with plans to refine policies and procedures in future sessions.
