# 09-08-2026 Livingston City Council

The Livingston City Council meeting on September 8, 2026, considered two readings of ordinances and several local issues. The council tabled the second reading of Ordinance 2026-8-1, which would reactivate the historic zoning commission, pending a work session to clarify the commission’s guidelines and authority. Discussion included property-owner concerns about added review requirements and potential effects on investment, as well as a reported $300,000 downtown improvement grant application that could support eligible façade, roof, accessibility, and other improvements in the historic district. The council also approved Ordinance 2026-8-2 concerning 14-day notice for BCA applications; the transcript does not specify the vote count.

The council approved a truck restriction for the residential section of Brickman Road and a stop-sign measure at the West Court/North Spring/North Court intersection, based on a TDOT recommendation. The mayor noted that Midstate Construction was the only bidder for the courthouse plaza and airport terminal projects and reported that the company completed the work and donated a fountain; no contract value or new award was stated. No other procurement award was identified.
