# City of Fairfield City Council Meeting - Monday October 26th, 2026

The Fairfield City Council meeting was held Monday, October 26, 2026. The council began its review of the 2027 budget and discussed the operating-budget process. It approved three Public Utilities contract ordinances following competitive bidding: Benchmark Land Management for the River Road Sanitary Sewer Extension (about 1,000 feet of force main serving nine properties; four bids received), TBH Construction for a project not clearly identified in the transcript (seven bids received), and Ashcraft Contracting for wastewater treatment plant water-line replacement (more than 3,000 feet of line and related work; six bids received). Staff recommended each as the lowest and best bidder, and the related motions to adopt carried. Contract amounts were not stated clearly in the transcript.

Council also adopted an amendment authorizing a development and tax increment financing agreement with NP Butler County TC LLC, an affiliated entity of North Point Development, for the Butler County Trade Center speculative industrial park; the amendment reflected a subsidiary name change. The council approved 2026 appropriation amendments covering four contractual public-utilities projects and nine non-contractual projects, but the contractual total is garbled in the transcript. Separately, a contractor was expected to mobilize for the Great Miami River Trail extension, with no contractor or amount identified. No further procurement details were provided for that work.
