# Clayton Town Council Work Session - October 5, 2026

The Town of Clayton Town Council held a work session on October 5, 2026. Staff and HDR Engineering presented water distribution and wastewater collection system master plans, including asset condition and risk analysis, future capacity, and projects to incorporate into the utility capital improvement plan. The presentation was for general concurrence on the planning framework, not formal adoption of specific budgets. Staff noted that $500,000 is adopted in the current budget for gravity sewer replacement; a scenario to address higher-risk assets within 14 years would require about $2.4 million annually. Staff also described plans to coordinate utility renewal with street resurfacing through five-year planning. No contract award or spending vote was recorded.

A CAMPO representative presented a proposed interlocal agreement among Clayton, Raleigh, Johnston County, JCATs, and CAMPO to access federal transit planning and formula funds. The presentation cited approximately $3.6 million in Section 5307 funding and $67,000 in Section 5303 planning funds, with matching requirements including a stated $3,352 match for each of Clayton and Johnston County for the 5303 funds. Parties still need to take action on the agreement; no approval vote occurred at this work session. Other discussion covered the quarterly budget update and planned October 16 launch of an updated, accessibility-focused town website; no related procurement action was identified.
