# City Council Meeting November 9, 2026

At its November 9, 2026 regular business meeting, the Annapolis City Council heard that the state Board of Public Works had approved an additional $5.7 million in flood-mitigation grant funding for City Dock resilience, redirected from the Compromise Street project to prevent the funds from expiring. The Housing Authority reported that its Eastport Terrace and Harbor House redevelopment remains on track, with an estimated total project cost of $350–$400 million. HUD denied the authority’s application for a $26 million Choice Neighborhoods Implementation grant; the director said the project is assembling funding from other sources, including tax-credit financing, state and county funds, and equity investors. The authority also cited prior city commitments of $1 million for the redevelopment and $500,000 for its public-housing capital fund. No vendor selections, contracts, or bids were presented for approval.

The Council adopted R35-26 as amended on second reader and approved R46-26, a FY2027 pay-plan revision for a cost-of-living adjustment. The transcript does not provide R35-26’s title. Other discussion included public comments on short-term-rental enforcement and zoning, a housing-authority update on resident relocation and waitlists, and scheduled committee discussions on water service lines, audits, and performance metrics. The meeting also recognized community and Hispanic Heritage Month outreach partners.
