# Eden City Council Meeting LIVESTREAM

The Eden City Council held its regular meeting on August 19, 2026, addressing several procurement and contract-related matters. Key procurement discussions included approval of a separation agreement with the outgoing city manager and appointment of an interim city manager. The council also approved a revised ordinance related to employment of relatives to accommodate the interim city manager. A significant contract approval involved adopting a new 35-year water purchase agreement with Dan River Water, based on a Dewberry Engineering study, with corrections to gallonage figures noted and approved. Additionally, the council considered and approved an additional local match of approximately $124,000 for the Stadium Drive sidewalk project due to increased construction bids, bringing the city's total commitment to just under $245,000. The council also adopted an updated floodplain damage prevention ordinance to maintain compliance with FEMA requirements. Other agenda items included public hearings, citizen petitions, and routine consent agenda approvals. Motions related to procurement and contracts were passed unanimously, reflecting ongoing infrastructure and utility management efforts in the city.
