Executive Summary

Birmingham City Council considered several notable items at its September 23 meeting, including a $1,000,000 expenditure to the Birmingham Board of Education and IMC Financial Consultants under state contracting authority, and the approval of Sunbelt Fire, Inc. as the vendor for fire truck and rescue vehicle replacement parts across multiple fleet lines.
