2. Presentation of a retirement plaque recognizing Michelle Hunt for over 13 years of service
with the City of Concord.
For over 13 years of service to the City of Concord, Michelle Hunt retired August 1st, 2026, from her
position at Rider Transit as the Senior Customer Service Representative.
In 2007, Michelle and her family relocated from Washington, D.C., where she had a 20-year career with
the federal government, including 10 years with the Drug Enforcement Administration. After moving to
Concord, she pursued her passion for creativity by starting a home staging and interior design business.
Following the housing market downfall, she came to the City’s Transit Department. She joined Rider
Transit in November of 2012, and except for the Transit Director, was the longest tenured employee
within the Department.
As the first point of contact for many Transit customers, Michelle has served at the Rider Transit Center
with a professional level of tact and consistently calm demeanor, despite being often faced with
customers who can be frustrated and in a hurry to get to their destination. She is well known and
appreciated by many of long-time customers and community members. Being only one of two Customer
Service employees on the Transit staff, she has often been relied upon heavily to cover extra hours
behind the Customer Service window at the Transit Center, never complaining. She worked tirelessly
through COVID, continuing to greet, assist, and reassure customers at the Rider Transit Center during
that incredibly challenging and stressful time. In addition to her daily duties at the office, especially around
the holidays, she expressed her love of decorating and design. Each December at the Transit Center,
she created festive Christmas themes that brought joy to coworkers and visitors.
As Michelle begins her retirement, she looks forward to spending more time with family and embracing
new adventures.

the requirements for the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting for the period
ending June 30, 2025. The Certificate of Achievement is the highest form of recognition in the area of

V. Unfinished Business
VI. New Business
A. Informational Items
B. Departmental Reports
1. Parks and Recreation Bond Update
C. Person’s Requesting to be Heard
D. Public Hearings
1. Conduct a public hearing to consider adopting a resolution authorizing the negotiation of an
installment financing contract.
Staff has determined that it is in the best interest of the City to enter into an installment financing contract
with a financial institution, to be determined, to pay the costs of constructing, equipping, and furnishing
a new facility designed to support the City’s Communications and Emergency Management Operations.
City staff has retained Parker Poe Adams & Bernstein LLP as special counsel and First Tryon Advisors
as financial advisor in connection with the proposed installment financing. The estimated cost of
financing the project is an amount not to exceed $10,200,000. The attached resolution authorizes the
Finance Director to submit an application to the LGC for approval of the installment financing contract,
approves the financing team, and includes other relevant information related to the issuance of the
installment financing contract.
Recommendation: Motion to approve a resolution authorizing the negotiation of an installment financing
contract in the amount of $10,200,000.
2. Conduct a public hearing to consider adopting an ordinance amending various articles
(Articles 1-4; 6-14) of the Concord Development Ordinance (CDO) to address Board and
Commission structure and duties, address signs in the Center City (CC) zoning district, and
further provide clarity, increase user efficiency, and comply with the North Carolina General
Statutes.
The proposed amendments to the Concord Development Ordinance (CDO) are principally intended to
be corrective in nature, largely stemming from the combination of the Planning and Zoning Commission
and the Board of Adjustment, updated legislation, and the clarification on signage in the Center City
zoning district.
The Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously voted to recommend the amendments to Council at
their July 21, 2026 meeting.

Recommendation: Motion to adopt an ordinance amending various articles (Articles 1-4; 6-14) of the
Concord Development Ordinance (CDO) to address Board and Commission structure and duties,
address signs in the Center City (CC) zoning district, and further provide clarity, increase user efficiency,
and comply with the North Carolina General Statutes.
3. Conduct a Public Hearing for case Z(CD)-01-26 to consider a Zoning Map Amendment
application for +/ - 0.510 acres located at 285 Palaside Drive NE from RM-1 (Residential Medium
Density) to C-1-CD (Light Commercial and Office – Conditional District).
The Planning and Zoning Commission heard the rezoning request for 285 Palaside Dr. at their July 21,
2026 meeting. The Commission voted 3:3 to recommend approval of the proposed zoning request. The
vote did not meet the required super-majority vote of three-fourths (3/4) of the Commission, so the
request has been forwarded to City Council for a final decision. This rezoning request does not require
an amendment to the 2030 Land Use Plan as this property is designated as Mixed-Use Activity (MUAC).
The applicant proposes the rezoning to convert an existing single-family residence into a commercial
office, specifically as a professional Hispanic-serving CPA service.
Recommendation: Conduct a Public Hearing and consider adopting an ordinance amending the official
zoning map from RM-1 (Residential Medium Density) to C-1-CD (Light Commercial and Office –
Conditional District).
E. Presentations of Petitions and Requests
1. Consider authorizing the City Manager to negotiate and execute a contract with Edison Foard
for the construction of the Hangar in Common at the Concord-Padgett Regional Airport in the
amount of $13,916,669.14.
This project will be constructing the new hangar in common on the north end of the general aviation
ramp. Work leading up to this hangar has included extending the ramp and extending the roadway north
(to be completed in Fall 2026) so this hangar will have both land side and air side access.
Following a formal solicitation process, five (5) bids were publicly opened on July 23, 2026. While
multiple bids were received, staff determined that the lowest bidder did not meet the “responsive” criteria
due to a lack of required documentation. Consequently, Edison Foard was identified as the lowest
responsible, responsive bidder.
The proposed award includes the Base Bid plus Alternates 1- 5, which includes fire alarm monitoring,
sprinkler system monitoring and preferred alternates for hangar door, emergency backup generator, and
surveillance cameras. The total contract value is $13,916,669.14. The funding for the construction will
be from NCDOT- State Airport Improvement Program, TRDF (Transportation Reserve Direct Funding)
and BIL (Bipartisan Infrastructure Law).
Recommendation: Motion to authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute a contract with
Edison Foard for construction of the Hangar in Common.
2. Consider authorizing the City Manager to execute change order #3 for the North Apron
Roadway Project at Concord-Padgett Regional Airport.
Change order #3 with Mountaineer Contractors Inc. is for adjusting the current design of the project to
meet the needs of the future hangar project adjacent to the project site. The original project was designed
assuming that the Hangar in Common would be developed at a later date. With the scope of the hangar

set and design established, Mountaineer was asked to incorporate the revisions to the approved plan of
the North Apron Roadway project. By incorporating these changes, the expectation is to make both the
future hangar project’s construction and schedule more efficient. The future project’s plans and
requirements modified several aspects from the original project’s design, resulting in deductions and
extensions to bid items, both old and new. Outside of the future project, Change Order #3 is to cover the
unexpected poor soil located beneath Wall A. The soil excavated was unsuitable for the wall stabilization
and required to be disposed and replaced. The net change and cost are reflected in the Change Order
#3. These items have been reviewed and recommended by our Project Engineer. The increase in the
contract amount of $ 145,329.85 (total contract amount now $2,656,865.34) will be funded through the
FY24 North Carolina Department of Transportation -Transportation Reserve Directed Funding (TRDF)
grant.
Recommendation: Motion to authorize the City Manager to execute change order #3 for $145,329.85
and to approve the budget amendment attached.
3. Consider authorizing the City Manager to execute amendment #2 with Talbert, Bright &
Ellington (TBE) for the North Apron Roadway Project at Concord-Padgett Regional Airport.
Amendment #2 with Talbert, Bright & Ellington (TBE) is for construction administration, quality control
testing and Resident Project Representative services to complete the project. The original contract time
for the project was 150 calendar days. Contract extensions have been approved to add 196 calendar
days to the contract due to unsuitable soils encountered. Additionally, the amendment includes roadway
design revisions to incorporate revisions needed to meet the design of the roadway and parking lots of
the hangar in common project adjacent to the project site. There is a credit for unused gate guard hours
that were not utilized due to the airport contracting with a third-party vendor to provide gate guard
services. The increase in the contract amount of $299,604.91 (total contract amount now $771,276.50)
will be funded through the FY24 North Carolina Department of Transportation -Transportation Reserve
Directed Funding (TRDF) grant.
Recommendation: Motion to authorize the City Manager to execute amendment #2 for $299,604.91
and to approve the budget amendment attached.
4. Consider adopting an ordinance amending Chapter 60 “Stormwater Quality Control and
Management,” Article IV “Stormwater Quality Control and Management,” Section 60-46 “Duty of
owner to comply with National Pollution Discharge Elimination (NPDES) Permit, Phase 2 and
utility compliance,” of the City Code to address property owner responsibility and compliance
when making changes to owned parcels.
This portion of the City Code requires that it is the responsibility of a property owner when making
improvements to alter the flow pattern of stormwater to install appropriate facilities to manage the runoff.
The Code also states that a zoning compliance permit may not be issued until this condition is met. This
section does not reflect historical practice as 1.) such facilities are part of the issued permit and would
not be installed prior to the permit and 2.) a literal reading of the Code would require stormwater review
of all minor improvements such as fences, outbuildings, small home additions, patios, etc. This item is
a corrective amendment to ensure that the City Code follows historical and accepted practice.
A strike-through document of Section 60-46 is also included.
Recommendation: Motion to adopt an ordinance amending Section 60- 46 of the City Code related to
property owner responsibility and compliance with NPDES Phase 2 Permits, the North Carolina
Administrative Code, and all applicable zoning and development ordinances of the City.

5. Present updates to the Downtown Concord MSD Façade Grant program.
With the completion of the Downtown Streetscape project, staff and Concord Downtown Development
Corporation Board of Directors recommend establishing a uniform maximum award of $5,000 for all new
applicants throughout the MSD. Previously, properties within the designated High Impact Areas along
the Streetscape project were eligible to receive matching grants of up to $10,000. The proposed change
would allow available funding to support and incentivize a greater number of façade improvement
projects.
Staff and the CDDC Board of Directors also recommend removing furniture from the list of eligible
expenses to prioritize permanent improvements that remain with the building as businesses change over
time.
Recommendation: Motion to approve revisions to the Downtown Façade Grant Policy, as
recommended by CDDC’s Urban Living Committee.
6. Consider adopting an ordinance ordering the demolition of the structure located at 426
Lincoln St. owned by Clean Clothes Enterprises.
The structure is located on a single parcel with an assessed building value of $78,530 according to
Cabarrus County land records. Upon inspection, the structure was determined to be dilapidated and
unfit for human habitation. Code Enforcement Officer Josh Jackson initiated a Minimum Housing case
on February 24, 2026. A Finding of Fact and Order to Repair or Demolish was issued on March 27,
2026, establishing an initial compliance deadline of April 25, 2026.
At the owner's request, two extensions were granted. The first extension began April 27, 2026, and
ended May 27, 2026. A second extension was granted on June 6, 2026, and ended on June 27, 2026.
A third extension request was submitted to the Chief of Police on June 30, 2026, and was denied.
To date, no rehabilitation work or other corrective action has been undertaken to bring the property into
compliance with the Order to Repair or Demolish. Civil penalties in the amount of $200.00 per day began
accruing on June 29, 2026.
Recommendation: Motion to adopt an ordinance ordering the demolition of the structure located at 426
Lincoln St. owned by Clean Clothes Enterprises.
7. Consider adopting a reimbursement resolution for expenditures associated with a planned
FY27 installment financing.
As part of the FY27 budget, staff recommended financing the purchase of fire trucks and related
equipment. The City intends to finance all or a portion of the costs of the fire trucks and related equipment
with proceeds of tax-exempt obligations. Staff is ready to proceed with the purchase of the fire trucks
and related equipment, and will incur capital expenditures before the execution and delivery of the
obligations.
The City will advance funds currently on hand to pay for the capital expenditures, and the City intends
and reasonably expects to reimburse itself for the capital expenditures from a portion of the proceeds of
the obligations. The maximum principal amount of the obligations currently expected to be executed and
delivered by the City to pay for all or a portion of the capital expenditures is $6,000,000.

Recommendation: Motion to adopt a reimbursement resolution for expenditures associated with a
planned FY27 installment financing.
8. Consider authorizing the City Manager and staff to move forward with site investigation and
schematic design with the consultant firm, McAdams for WW Flowe Park in the amount of
$101,815.
The WW Flowe Park project renovations are part of the GO Bond referendum. The park project is located
at 99 Central Heights Drive.
The master plan for WW Flowe Park was adopted in July 2023. The master plan was based on public
input from two community meetings and two public surveys. The master plan included the existing
facilities which comprise of four baseball/softball diamonds, two batting cages, .75-mile walking trail,
small shelters, playground area, two sand volleyball courts, and existing open space. The schematic
design will provide details needed for new amenities and renovated amenities based on the master plan
to provide critical information for staff to move to final design.
Recommendation: Motion to authorize City Manager to move forward with schematic design with the
firm McAdams for the bond funded renovations to WW Flowe Park in the amount of $101,815.
9. Consider authorizing the purchase of a replacement Jet Vac truck for the Stormwater
Department from Jet-Vac Equipment Company in the amount of $632,124.13 and to approve the
associated budget amendment.
The Stormwater Department utilizes a Jet Vac vehicle to clean storm drain inlets, boxes, and pipes. The
department has one vehicle of this type. With this vehicle out of service, customer service requests and
routine maintenance work are delayed. This directly impacts the level of service we strive to provide.
Additionally, during recovery from storm events, alternative maintenance approaches are required that
are less efficient and increase employee exposure to potential safety issues. The current vehicle,
purchased in 2019 began encountering major mechanical issues approximately 8 months ago. The truck
then worked on and off for several months. The original vendor, other third-party Jet Vac vendors, and
our internal Fleet Department have exhausted its efforts to repair this vehicle to a reliable state. Staff
have located a truck meeting our specifications that is in stock and ready. Jet-Vac Equipment Company
has been a trusted and reliable vendor for the City since the purchase of a Wastewater Jet Vac several
years ago. This vehicle is being offered and purchased under Sourcewell Contract #101221-SCA.
Recommendation: Motion to authorize the purchase of a replacement Jet Vac truck for the Stormwater
Department from Jet-Vac Equipment Company in the amount of $632,124.13 and to approve the
associated budget amendment.
10. Consider amending Article 5.10 Political Activities in the Personnel Policies and Procedures.
Changes include permitting City employees to run for any elected public office but prohibiting City
employees from holding elected public office while employed by the City, addressing instances of any
City employee who may currently hold elected public office and other revisions consistent with N.C.G.S.
§ 160A-169.
Recommendation: Motion to amend Article 5.10 Political Activities in the Personnel Policies and
Procedures.

11. Consider making appointments to vacancies on various City of Concord Boards and
Commissions.
Attached, for reference, is a list of potential Board and Commission appointments for consideration for
the City of Concord.
Recommendation: Motion to make appointments to various Boards and Commissions.

to operate with reliable, manufacturer-supported respiratory protection that complies with current NFPA
standards. This purchase fulfills the replacement project approved in the Fiscal Year 2026 CIP Budget not to
