SUMMARY:City of Durham: Regular City Council Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Regular City Council Meeting\n\nDurham's council held a public hearing Thursday on an incentive agreement with AbbVie worth up to $9\,312\,721\, the only hearing on the agenda. The largest contract was elsewhere: a $32.4 million design-build award to CDM Constructors for the Durham water treatment plant under the Jordan Lake Water Supply Program\, with a contingency taking the ceiling to $35.6 million. Two more lift station contracts went to Carolina Civilworks for $2.3 million and $4.3 million.\n\nThe council also voted on a resolution adopting the Durham Cultural Roadmap\, presented at the September 10 work session\, and on filling seats on the Durham Housing Authority board and the Workers' Rights Commission. The consent agenda ran to two dozen items: 32 patrol vehicles and their up-fitting for $2.2 million together\, a $375\,000 public art contract at the Durham Aquatics Center\, land purchases for three sidewalk and bike projects including a condemnation on South Roxboro Street\, and $350\,000 of watershed protection money for the Tar River Land Conservancy's Dykes tracts.\n\nAgenda: https://durham.granicus.com/AgendaViewer.php?view_id=2&event_id=2082\nWatch: https://durham.granicus.com/ViewPublisher.php?view_id=2\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/3944

SUMMARY:City of Durham: Durham City Council Work Session
DESCRIPTION:Durham City Council Work Session\n\nDurham's council spends Thursday's work session on contracts\, and the biggest is transit. A purchase from Gillig covers eight buses for GoDurham: five 40-foot diesels at $803\,691 each and three 40-foot battery-electric buses at $1\,311\,645 each\, $7.95 million in all. The electric buses cost about 63 percent more apiece than the diesels. Two more transportation items follow\, an interlocal agreement with Raleigh for bus mobile ticketing and $262\,770 toward a Triangle region transit survey.\n\nWater work is the other large number: an $11.48 million construction award to T.A. Loving for the Elizabeth Street waterline replacement\, with a contingency taking it to $12.64 million\, and a sixth amendment to the Hazen and Sawyer engineering contract for East Durham water and sewer rehabilitation and the Belt Street stormwater project\, taking that contract to $9.53 million. The council also renews its lobbying contracts\, $480\,000 with Checkmate Government Relations for the state and $346\,000 with The Ferguson Group for Washington\, and authorizes condemnation of temporary construction easements at 710 W. Cornwallis Road and 3414 Hillsborough Road for two sidewalk and bike projects.\n\nTwo annexation hearings close the session\, MIS Durham Headquarters Two and 3815 Wake Forest Highway\, each bringing land from county into city jurisdiction with a utility extension agreement. Parks and Recreation asks to apply for a $15 million Outdoor Recreation Legacy Partnership grant\, and the police department presents second quarter crime figures.\n\nAgenda: https://durham.granicus.com/AgendaViewer.php?view_id=2&event_id=2083\nWatch: https://durham.granicus.com/ViewPublisher.php?view_id=2\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/1570

SUMMARY:City of Durham: Regular City Council Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Regular City Council Meeting\n\nDurham's City Council holds public hearings Monday night on two annexations. One brings in 3815 Wake Forest Highway for Accord Holdings under a planned residential district.

SUMMARY:City of Durham: Durham City Council Work Session
DESCRIPTION:Durham City Council Work Session\n\nDurham's City Council work session on Thursday is mostly contracts\, and the largest are for water. Carolina Civilworks would get $5.1 million to replace waterlines on Duke University Road and North Driver Street. McKim & Creed's design contract for the South Durham Water Reclamation Facility filter replacement would grow by $5.2 million to $6.7 million. Kittelson & Associates would get $1.6 million to design the Duke-Gregson corridor. The council also hears an update on the City Hall reconfiguration and a $547\,698 construction contract for it.\n\nFive public hearings close the session: annexations of Courtyards at Leesville and 508 Olive Branch\, local landmark status for the Cranford-Wannamaker House\, and street assessments on Chalmers Street and Lang Street. Durham schedules hearings at work sessions\, so the council may vote that day. Earlier items accept $297\,222 in federal homelessness grants and carry unspent 2025-26 money into this year's budget.\n\nAgenda: https://durham.granicus.com/AgendaViewer.php?view_id=2&event_id=2085\nWatch: https://durham.granicus.com/ViewPublisher.php?view_id=2\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/1592
