Executive Summary

The Birmingham City Council considered authorizing the Mayor to execute a First Amendment to the Master Contract for Public Safety Services involving surveillance equipment, and took up a first-reading ordinance that would close 20th Avenue South to vehicular traffic approximately 190 feet from its intersection with Richard Arrington Jr. Boulevard South. The council also scheduled a public hearing to determine whether to revoke the business license of Happy Hour Hangout at 2417 Avenue C, and an emergency addendum was added to the agenda, though details of that emergency were not disclosed. The council additionally handled 6 budget items, 5 contracts, 3 legal matters, and 1 public works item on consent.
