The Reinbeck City Council voted unanimously April 6 to place a $4 million bond referendum for a proposed new fire station on the November 2026 ballot.
Council member Pease moved to place the bond question on the ballot; Johnson seconded and the roll call vote recorded five ayes. Council meeting minutes state the fire department has invested approximately $200,000 in the project so far and asked the city to bond for the remainder.

The motion to put a $4 million bond referendum before voters was approved as a formal council action. No timeline for construction was included in the minutes; council members did not specify debt-service impacts or a tax-rate estimate during the meeting. The council did not record any public opposition in the minutes.
