# Cary Council Meeting – September 24, 2026

The Cary Town Council meeting on September 24, 2026, included several procurement-related discussions and approvals. The council approved a consent agenda containing multiple contract amendments and budget adjustments, including contracts for integrated fuel management services, transit service management, value engineering for a water reclamation facility, and IT equipment procurement from Cisco Capital. A significant agenda item was the rezoning and preliminary development plan for the Austin Commons project, which involves mixed-use development with commercial, residential, and office spaces, including commitments to environmental sustainability features such as solar panels, EV charging stations, and Silva cells for tree health. The council discussed affordable housing provisions within the project and approved the rezoning request unanimously. Additionally, the council considered formalizing the Transportation Working Group into a Transportation and Mobility Committee to enhance citizen engagement and address transportation issues more effectively, approving a motion to explore this transition further with attention to staff impact. The smoking ordinance was deferred to a future meeting. Overall, the meeting focused on urban development, infrastructure improvements, contract approvals, and community health initiatives.
