# November 9, 2026 City Council Meeting

The Garden City City Council meeting on November 9, 2026, referred a proposed Ford Road mixed-use development back to the Planning Commission for further review of council concerns, including building height, parking, density, and neighborhood impacts. The council also approved, 7–0, extending Resolution 26-04-058’s moratorium on data processing and storage centers through April 6, 2027, while an ordinance is being developed. Council discussed improving public-hearing notices and the need to revisit the city’s master plan, but took no action on those topics. A state senator’s departing update cited prior funding for Garden City, including $2.5 million for sidewalks and $800,000 for fire-station renovations; these were reported as past funding, not new awards at this meeting.

The council approved two Dance Express purchases, both described as pass-through costs collected from participating students: $12,360 for fundraising chocolate from World’s Finest Chocolate and a costume purchase. Staff described the costume request as not to exceed $16,815, while the motion was recorded as not to exceed $16,800.15; it passed 7–0. No other contract awards or procurement decisions were identified.
