What's on this agenda

Garner's town council work session is briefing-heavy rather than decision-heavy. The Inspections Director will update the council on the town's emergency preparedness efforts across departments, covering training, planning, and coordination for continuity of operations, and the Assistant Town Manager will preview the town's draft 2026 legislative agenda before it goes to the General Assembly.

Staff will also walk the council through the December pending-agenda report and a monthly update on the town's development activity map. The session includes a closed session; no votes are recorded on this agenda.
