Regular City Council Meeting
Monday, December 2, 2024
What's on this agenda
Durham's council awarded a $20,355,978 construction contract to Moffat Pipe on December 2, 2024, to rehabilitate and replace utilities along the West Club Boulevard corridor, with $2,035,597 in contingency behind it. The same agenda carried a condemnation resolution taking an easement at 1025 Ninth Street for that project, and a $267,508.66 engineering amendment with Dewberry that pushes its design contract to $2,150,615.87.
Four public hearings closed the evening. Two were rezonings, Vivo Living Ivy Creek to Planned Development Residential and a Hillsborough Road parcel to Commercial Infill. One was a statutory vested rights determination for Davis Park Pod G, fixing its site plan expiry at December 2, 2029. The last would permanently close 2,899 square feet of the old Victory Lane cul-de-sac. Elsewhere on the consent agenda, the council took up $1,000,000 in federal recovery money for the Fayetteville Street corridor, accepted $750,000 from Durham County for digital equity work and $297,140 from the Department of Energy for rooftop solar at the W.D. Hill Recreation Center, and confirmed five appointments to the Civilian Police Review Board.
