# Canton GA City Council November 5 2026

The November 5, 2026 Canton City Council meeting included a presentation on the city’s water and wastewater master planning. Black & Veatch outlined water-demand projections and recommended phasing a new water treatment plant, with an initial 9-MGD facility targeted for 2032 under conventional delivery or potentially 2030 using construction management at risk. The presentation cited an estimated total of about $263 million for the phased alternative, including an approximately $160 million initial phase; no plant or delivery-method decision was made. Council also discussed four county transportation projects that could require a combined $5.7 million city contribution. Staff proposed bringing intergovernmental agreements back for consideration, with some funding dependent on Atlanta Regional Commission approval; no commitment was approved at this meeting.

Procurement items included a motion to approve emergency sediment removal and dewatering at Allen Pond by CAM Contracting Southeast LLC for a transcript-reported amount of $168,500; the vote outcome is not captured in the transcript. Task Order 10 with Practical Design Partners for West Main Street pedestrian-connection survey and design, for $238,599, was presented, with approval deferred to a later meeting. Council also voted to eliminate the city’s reroofing-permit requirement, effective January 1, 2027, changing a requirement for roofing contractors. Other zoning and right-of-way matters were discussed without identified purchasing decisions.
