# City Council Oct  27 2026

The City of Biloxi City Council meeting was held October 28, 2026, according to the metadata (the title identifies it as the October 27 meeting). Procurement-related discussion included consent-agenda funding for the Christmas on the Water event: a $5,000 request and an additional $2,150 in contributions were discussed. Council members clarified that the event sponsor, Christmas on the Water, is responsible for event-promotion expenses; the city retains the right to request an accounting of the funds. The consent agenda was approved 6–0. Members also discussed a wheel balancer for the Police and Fire departments’ shared vehicle shop, and capital-project funding to be moved into project accounts for construction, with bids to be solicited and brought back to the council later. The capital-project amount was not stated; discussion referenced a reduction from a prior $16 million figure. No contract or bid award was made during the meeting.

An ordinance amending garbage collection and disposal fees received a first reading, with no final action reported. In a code-enforcement hearing, officials said they would obtain bids to clear overgrowth and litter from a property and charge the cost to the owner; access and fire-safety concerns were also discussed. Council members raised other infrastructure and facilities matters, including street lighting, a damaged sidewalk, and a proposed sidewalk segment, but no related procurement decisions were reported. The routine agenda passed 6–0.
