Executive Summary

The Birmingham City Council considered a pair of ordinances that would rezone specified parcels from QB-1 (Qualified Neighborhood Business) to C-1 (Neighborhood Commercial), expanding permitted commercial uses in the affected areas, along with a resolution scheduling December 9 public hearings on two additional rezoning cases — one converting a Multiple Dwelling District to Light Manufacturing and another pre-zoning recently annexed territory. The council also took up a $1,000,000 supplemental nutrition assistance program for elderly residents, a $539,511.46 emergency contract with Russo Corporation to repair storm drainage damage and restore an affected roadway, a 10-year Medical Clinic Board lease renewal with BBH PBMC, LLC through November 1, 2035, and an Interlocal Cooperation Agreement with the Alabama Department of Transportation. The council also handled 8 public safety items, 7 budget items, and 3 routine contracts, appointments, and public works matters.
