Temple Terrace City Council Meeting October 6, 2026

Temple Terrace City Council meeting, October 6, 2026: Council approved on second reading the voluntary annexation and comprehensive-plan land-use amendment for approximately 12.29 acres near US Highway 301 and Harney Road. The property’s designation changes to Temple Terrace Community Mixed Use 12; any future development will require additional zoning and site-plan review before council. The meeting also opened with notice that Southwest Florida Water Management District Phase 3 watering restrictions remain in effect through March 31, 2027.

Procurement discussion centered on a city RFQ for engineering project-management services, which the city manager said had been issued. The selected firm’s tasks are to include evaluating short-term temporary-filtration options; responses are typically due within about 30 days, followed by a substantial review process. No firm, contract, or award was approved, and the council took no procurement-related vote. Council also asked about funding for a vacuum truck discussed at a budget session and an anticipated legal review of a future contract; neither matter resulted in a spending decision.
