Council approves consent agenda, greenlights purchase of pumper engine
Summary
At its Jan. 12 meeting the Nassau Bay City Council approved its consent agenda and authorized a purchase order for a new pumper engine; other measures, including a redevelopment agreement and budget amendment tied to a restaurant project, were introduced but the transcript does not record final votes.
The Nassau Bay City Council approved a routine consent agenda and authorized the purchase of a new fire pumper at its Jan. 12, 2026, meeting at City Hall Council Chambers.
The consent agenda — which included approval of the Dec. 8, 2025 meeting minutes, the quarterly financial and investment report for September 2025, the 2024 annual report for Nassau Bay Reinvestment Zone No. 1, and the fiscal year 2026 Nassau Bay Redevelopment Authority budget — passed on a single motion that the mayor recorded as "Passes 7 nothing."
On a separate item, council members moved and seconded to authorize issuance of a purchase order for a replacement pumper (Engine 81). The motion was seconded and the mayor recorded the motion as passed. Staff had presented a Pierce Velocity pumper specification with a 2,000 GPM pump, a 750‑gallon water tank and seating for six; the estimated price range discussed was about $1.4 million to $1.49 million with a delivery lead time of 29–32 months.
Several other measures were introduced for consideration: a council member moved to approve Resolution No. 2026‑0112‑1, authorizing the Nassau Bay Redevelopment Authority to negotiate and approve a Chapter 380 performance agreement with Estelle's Cantina LLC, and to authorize an amendment to the interlocal agreement between the RDA and the city that would defer certain RDA debt service payments. The motion to amend the FY26 budget (Ordinance 2026‑0112‑1) to reflect those changes was also put on the floor. The transcript records the motions being made but does not include an explicit roll‑call or a final vote on those items.
The meeting also included briefings and presentations from staff and community members on public safety, parks, public works and other routine matters. The council adjourned following discussion of a proposed ordinance addressing private recording devices installed in public easements.
