# November 2,, 2026 - Sebastian City Council Executive Session

The Sebastian City Council regular meeting, held November 2, 2026 (per the meeting title), approved a $2.5 million purchase-and-sale agreement for properties east and west of Indian River Drive near the working waterfront. The purchase requires a four-vote supermajority and was approved. Staff identified $989,668 from project OP106, $250,000 from the CRA, and $1,260,332 from general fund reserves as the initial funding sources; expected offsets include $1.41 million from an FCT grant, $250,000 from a FIND grant, and a future $700,000 payment from Crestwind upon its property closing. Staff reported that the purchase price exceeds the approximately $2.1 million average of two appraisals. Council also approved a purchase order of up to $35,000 with Inspire Placemaking Group for the state-required comprehensive-plan evaluation and update, and approved purchases of police vehicles: a vehicle from Hardy Chevrolet GMC with new patrol equipment and two 2027 Ford Explorers for detectives. Vehicle prices were not stated in the transcript.

The council approved an assignment and assumption of Shelter’s airport hangar lease to Florida Hangers LLC, and approved ending Profite Management’s separate lease amendment for an airport fuel tank; staff said the city may seek to sell the tank, with no refund requested. A heavy-industrial zoning text amendment was continued to the November 18 meeting, with staff asked to provide a comparison of the existing and proposed standards. On septic and sewer options, council discussed requesting a broader financing and implementation strategy, further cost estimates from the county, and research into consultants; no spending approval was recorded. The city attorney also requested authority to engage outside co-counsel for a pending legal matter, but the transcript does not record a council decision on that request.
