# Tampa City Council - Part 2 - 11/05/26

At the November 5, 2026 Tampa City Council meeting, the council advanced multiple proposed city charter amendments at first reading for a second hearing on November 19. Proposals included allowing council to void mayoral executive orders, clarifying council staffing authority, changing mayoral term limits, and creating an Inspector General office; the mayoral term-limit proposal passed with Councilmembers Miranda and Carlson opposed, while the Inspector General proposal passed unanimously. No contract award, bid approval, or new procurement amount was identified. In a separate matter, a motion was made directing the administration to prepare a draft ordinance on potential large-format digital displays in the Central Business District, following a location study and inventory associated with Architecture Plus International Inc. and an existing work order; the transcript does not capture a vote on that motion, and council members discussed ongoing settlement negotiations with sign companies.

The council received and filed the annual red-light-camera report, which reported $2,098,103 paid to Verra Mobility and $4,780,991 in net city revenue excluding operating costs. It scheduled for December 3 a first reading of an ordinance directing retained speed-detection-system funds toward administering school-zone systems and safety infrastructure within school attendance zones; this was not an approval of spending. Staff also reported that the Land Development Code update is ongoing, with public comments being accepted. Council scheduled several future financial reports and continued other agenda items; no specific new budget allocation or procurement award was approved.
