# City Council Meeting September 28th, 2026

The Aberdeen City Council meeting, identified in the title as September 28, 2026 (the metadata timestamp is September 29), approved several spending items. Council approved a $238,592 payment to Landmark Structures of Fort Worth for completed Schedule B work on a water-tank project, including coating, tank erection, and roof construction. It also approved a $68,380 payment to Woods Fuller for legal services on the Windswater partnership project; the city will be reimbursed by project partners BDM Rural Water and WEB. A lime slaker equipment purchase was discussed, including a 10% down payment and an expected winter project period, and approved. Council also approved a parks, recreation, and forestry budget supplement funded largely by donations. The city engineer described pursuing state revolving-fund support for lead service-line replacement, including potential principal forgiveness of up to 49%; a replacement plan is due by November 1, 2027, and staff is seeking to advance the project onto the state water plan.

Council discussed working drafts of data-center ordinances but took no action on them; the city attorney said they were not ready for public presentation and indicated a possible proposal next week to extend the moratorium. Staff also reported early-stage affordable-housing work, including identifying potential development sites and exploring partnerships, but no procurement or spending decision was made. Public comments addressed data-center oversight, housing and emergency shelter needs, and water service concerns. No vendor selection or contract award was identified for the housing or data-center discussions.
