CITY OF NEW CARROLLTON
NOVEMBER 10, 2025
Present were Councilmembers Duane H. Rosenberg, Cynthia Mills, Lincoln Lashley, Briana Urbina
(virtual), and Agnelli Sybel Malavé; Mayor Phelecia E Nembhard, City Manager Maisha Williams, DPW
Director William Barclay, and City Clerk Kaitlyn Schisler.
I. Call to Order
The meeting was called to order at 7:02 p.m. by Council Chair Rosenberg in the Municipal Center, Room
230.
II. Public Comments
The following members of the public made comment:
● Shirley Brown thanked the Mayor for distributing turkeys to the public. She also supported the
purchase of all three trucks, citing the hazardous conditions for employees and the financial
advantage of buying them now before costs increase.
● Cynthia Poles-Suite supported purchasing the trucks for employee safety. She asked that they
purchase three if they needed to be replaced.
● Marilyn Padmore expressed interest in the discussion of dump truck alternatives before spending
$430,000.
III. Emergency Request to Purchase Dump Trucks
Mr. Barclay discussed the condition of Public Works’ dump trucks, noting only one of three is currently
operational, with the others posing serious safety risks due to mechanical failures, electrical issues, and
hazardous exhaust. Mr. Barclay explained that leaf collection could proceed with one truck but would be
delayed, and the proposed new trucks would improve operations and allow more staff to operate smaller
vehicles. Funding for the trucks was suggested from ARPA or capital outlay funds, with expedited
delivery possible within 30 days. Councilmembers Mills, Urbina, and Lashley emphasized the urgency of
replacing all three trucks due to safety concerns, while Chair Rosenberg and Councilmember Malavé
discussed purchasing two to balance budget considerations and fleet rotation. The mayor highlighted that
these issues date back to 2018–2019, reinforcing the need to update the fleet.
IV. Ordinance 26-07
Ordinance 26-07, a budget amendment to provide money for the trucks was presented. Councilmembers
discussed the need for a $420,000 ARPA budget amendment, noting that most funds in the Public Works
capital budget are already allocated, though some building, equipment, and parks funds remain. The City
Manager clarified that after the amendment, $418,427 would still be available in ARPA spending, with a
detailed report to follow at the next meeting.
V. Motion to Adjourn
Councilmember Urbina made a motion to adjourn the meeting. The motion passed (5-0-0). The meeting
was adjourned at 7:47 pm.
