# Gresham City Council Business Meeting, Oct. 20, 2026

The Gresham City Council business meeting on October 20, 2026, unanimously approved its consent agenda, including awards to GSI Water Solutions for groundwater monitoring wells and sampling at the Gresham Fire Training Center, MIG Inc. to update the Springwater District Plan, and an award for lighting and rectangular rapid-flashing beacons; the beacon vendor and contract amounts were not stated. Council also approved a contract amendment with Cascadia Health, not to exceed $2,165,000, to maintain four clinician positions in the Police Department’s Behavioral Health Unit. Staff described the related fiscal-year 2026–27 contingency transfer and the end of federal grant funding for the program; the recorded vote was on the Cascadia contract amendment.

During public comments, multiple speakers urged the city to establish a timely services and funding agreement with Metro East Community Media, warning that declining cable revenues could force service reductions beginning in January. Council said the matter was under consideration, but no funding decision was made. The city manager also reported on housing, safety, infrastructure, and technology initiatives, without presenting additional procurement actions for a vote.
