# City of Little Rock Reconvened:Agenda Board Meeting 10 13 26

The City of Little Rock reconvened board meeting (metadata date: October 14, 2026; meeting title references October 13) approved grouped ordinances, including a contract with Bell Chevrolet Company for five electric vehicles—three 2027 Chevrolet Bolt LTs, one 2025 Chevrolet Blazer Police Pursuit EV, and one 2026 Chevrolet Equinox—for a price not to exceed $169,525 plus taxes and fees. The board also approved an ordinance authorizing a master bond purchase and continuing covenant agreement to finance vehicles and equipment for the city’s waste collection and disposal system; the transcript does not clearly capture the maximum principal amount. Members discussed approximately $800,000 for youth programs running January through December 2027, serving 416 currently enrolled youth across eight programs, and staff indicated a future RFP could create opportunities for additional organizations. The transcript does not clearly establish a vote on those program items at this reconvened session.

Members also discussed the city’s self-funded employee health plan, claims oversight, and reporting, and a possible resolution or ordinance concerning nonrenewal of the city’s Flock camera contract, which a director said could come before the board in a couple of weeks; no decision on that contract was made here. Police officials described audits and uses of the cameras, while board members raised concerns about misuse, surveillance, and illegal dumping. The board voted to approve an independent review of an HR complaint against the city attorney. The mayor also proclaimed October 14–18 as Central Arkansas PrideFest Week.
