Regular City Council Meeting - August 24, 2026

The Madison Heights City Council held its regular meeting on August 24, 2026. Key procurement-related discussions included approval of the consent agenda, which featured the purchase of a leased vehicle (number 457) and a self-contained breathing apparatus decontamination washing system for the fire department. The council also confirmed appointments for key city positions: Cheryl Rotman was confirmed as Human Resources Director and Deputy City Manager, and Mary Daly was confirmed as City Clerk following a competitive selection process. Additionally, the council adopted a temporary moratorium resolution on new data center developments to allow time for zoning and regulatory review before any applications are submitted. The meeting included public comments on local issues such as traffic lane changes and surveillance technology, but no new contracts or budget allocations were announced beyond those noted. The council also appointed delegates for the upcoming Michigan Municipal League convention and discussed upcoming community events and capital improvements, including a $7.72 million investment in Red Oaks Park.
