# Legislative Session, Monday, November 2, 2026

The City of Airway Heights legislative session on November 2, 2026, covered utility and infrastructure contracts, funding priorities, and the proposed 2027 budget. Council considered a two-year environmental services agreement for the city’s GAC water-filtration system, valued at $7,444,000 and described as fully funded by the Air Force; a motion was made to approve it and authorize the interim city manager to sign. Council also considered Amendment No. 1 to Century West Engineering Work Order 2024-02 for Southside Lift Station construction engineering and closeout services, totaling $48,316.19, to be paid from ARPA funds. A motion was made to approve the amendment and authorize the public works director to sign; the transcript does not capture the final votes on either contract. The council unanimously approved the 2027 federal legislative priorities. The city reported that its $13-million Safe Streets for All funding request for the first phase of the US 2 project was denied and said it would continue pursuing grants and other funding.

The council reviewed the proposed $49.1-million 2027 city budget in first reading, including about $16 million in planned capital projects in the utility budget; no budget vote was taken at this meeting. Staff also reported that negotiations on a purchase-and-sale agreement for the recreation-center property were ongoing, with the school district requesting more time to review the draft. A first-reading ordinance would establish a new contract-approval chapter in the municipal code, but no details or vote on that ordinance were provided. The council unanimously adopted water-use efficiency goals, including a 10% reduction in average daily water production per equivalent residential unit by 2037, with measures addressing leakage, metering, and water-main replacement. The transcript also notes a pending review of city fees and planned study and hearing dates for comprehensive-plan implementation ordinances.
