The Birmingham City Council’s regular meeting was held October 7, 2026. The council approved a resolution accepting Oracle America Inc.’s bid for cloud services—software-, platform-, and infrastructure-as-a-service—for 120 days at a cost of $315,000. Administration said the engagement would address problems with the city’s Oracle ERP system and include technical assistance and training; the council requested a progress update by the end of the first quarter of 2027. The council also approved an agreement with Flourish Alabama for community engagement, neighborhood, youth, education, and technology initiatives; no agreement amount was stated in the transcript.

The council approved a $69,699.33 appropriation from opioid-litigation settlement funds to the City Attorney’s Office through the Neighborhood Revitalization Fund. The mayor also noted the city’s $3 million general-fund investment in housing and homelessness services. No other specific procurement awards or bid approvals were identified in the transcript.
