# 10/06/2026 Federal Way City Council - Regular Meeting

The City of Federal Way City Council’s regular meeting on October 6, 2026, included several procurement-related consent items. The council unanimously approved the 2026 Neighborhood Traffic Safety projects, authorization to bid for unit-priced guardrail and concrete barrier services, a unit-priced sidewalk and curb replacement contract, and the Lakota berm 85% design report and bid authorization. It also approved assignment of the Hyperfiber franchise to Eaton Fiber, accounts-payable and payroll vouchers for July and August, and the August monthly financial report. No contract award amounts or bid results were stated. The emergency management update noted an approximately $50,000 annual FEMA grant, described as reimbursable, and the council discussed the upcoming budget and remaining ARPA funds, but took no related funding action at this meeting.

The council unanimously advanced Ordinance 947, updating automated traffic safety camera rules and authorizing 24/7 enforcement at qualifying school zones and walk zones, to a second reading on October 20; the chief said the city planned a 30-day warning period before citations began. Ordinance 946, allowing lodging-tax advisory committee members to be appointed by organizational position amid staff turnover and clarifying voting by interested members, also advanced unanimously to a second reading. These policy changes may affect future traffic-safety enforcement and lodging-tax grant recommendations. No vendor selection or new contract award was made on either ordinance.
