City Council Regular Meeting - Amended - 09/23/2024

The City of Goodyear held a regular City Council meeting on September 23, 2024, where key procurement-related discussions focused on the approval of expenditures totaling $3.6 million for pavement management projects across various city locations. The council reviewed the city's pavement condition index (PCI), which has improved from the low 60s to the mid-70s over the past decade, and discussed the types of pavement treatments planned, including micro seal, high volume fast, low volume Cape seal, and asphalt mill and overlay. The council unanimously approved the budgeted funds for these road maintenance and improvement projects, emphasizing the importance of maintaining infrastructure to ensure safety and quality of life. Additionally, the council addressed a zoning ordinance amendment to comply with new state law allowing up to six chickens per lot in single-family residential areas, with restrictions on roosters and enclosure requirements. The ordinance was approved despite some council members expressing concerns about enforcement, odors, and neighborhood impacts. No other procurement or contracting actions were noted during the meeting.
