# October 7, 2026 Regular Meeting of the Imperial City Council

The Imperial City Council’s October 7, 2026 regular meeting included a procurement item for feasibility, design, and engineering services for the Imperial Regional Park Development Project, with Schmidt Design Group named in the agenda. The transcript does not capture the contract discussion, amount, or a vote on that item, so its disposition cannot be confirmed. Staff also reported receiving proposals for a climate tech project, to be reviewed later. The council adopted Ordinance No. 836 establishing a 15 mph speed limit in designated school zones; this was a policy action, not a procurement decision.

A financial adviser presented a potential refinancing of existing community facilities district bonds, estimating approximately $1 million in combined savings for property owners, including about $400,000 for one CFD and $300,000 for the Bratton CFD. The adviser said the refinancing would not create a city repayment obligation and that issuance costs would be paid from bond proceeds. A council member asked the city manager to explore the option, and the response indicated staff would move forward; no formal vote is captured. The council also approved consent-agenda warrants, but the transcript provides no amounts. No other specific procurement awards or budget allocations are confirmed in the transcript.
