# 11/2/26 Kalispell City Council Session

The City of Kalispell City Council’s November 2, 2026 session approved its consent agenda, which included awarding the West Montana Street Improvement Project, accepting $3,049 in IT grants for cybersecurity improvements and training, and adopting updated building, electrical, and fire codes, including a tiny-homes appendix. The consent agenda also included the October 5 and 12 meeting minutes. No vendor or award amount for the street project was stated in the transcript.

Council considered Resolution 6359 on using an alternative project-delivery method for the Kalispell Central Garage Facility; the transcript cuts off during the roll-call vote, so the final result is unclear. Resolution 6360 concerned up to $58,650 in downtown and Westside TIF funding for replacing public benches, litter receptacles, and planters. A motion to postpone for a work session failed, and an amendment removing the mandatory center-armrest requirement passed; the transcript does not capture the final vote on the underlying funding request. The project estimate included $333,866 for furniture, plus removal, installation, sidewalk work, and contingency, with procurement to follow applicable processes. Flathead Wellness Association students also asked to help shape any future use of potential Meta-lawsuit funds; no allocation decision was made.
