# Newnan City Council Meeting - October 27, 2026

The October 27, 2026, Newnan City Council meeting included approval of a street-paving contract: council unanimously awarded the bid to Piedmont Paving, identified as the lowest responsive bidder, for approximately $2.65 million to pave about 4.442 centerline miles. The project is supported by a $563,573.69 Georgia DOT LMIG contribution. Council also unanimously approved an application to demolish a city-owned structure on Six Kids Street to make way for two new homes, and approved additional street closures for the Throttle Junkies spring rally in April 2027. The transcript does not clearly render the exact paving-contract amount.

Council held the first of two public hearings on an update to the development impact fee ordinance; no adoption vote occurred, and a second hearing was planned for November 10. Restart Coweta requested help finding a warming-shelter location after its current site became unavailable; council unanimously directed staff to explore feasibility, without committing city funds or space. Other discussion included a crossing-guard safety concern, the opening of a city park, and a proposed change to the mayoral election method from plurality to majority. Debate on the election proposal was still underway when the transcript ended, so no final action is recorded.
