Dunwoody City Council meeting for July 13, 2026

The Dunwoody City Council meeting held on July 13, 2026, included extensive discussions on several procurement and capital improvement projects. Key procurement-related topics included the bidding process for a new Dunwoody police SWAT storage building, with bids due in early August and construction planned to start by the end of the year. The council reviewed a major redevelopment project for the old Walmart parcel, involving Kroger's proposed grocery store with a pharmacy drive-thru and gas station, which required zoning variances and a master sign plan approval. Public concerns about delivery hours and noise mitigation were addressed, with Kroger proposing delivery hours from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. The council also approved additional funding reallocations for the Mount Vernon path project and paving contracts, including a contract extension for road and stormwater maintenance with a 48% cost increase. Other agenda items included presentations from local sports organizations and updates on city events and IT system audits. Several motions related to contract awards, budget allocations, and project approvals were passed or scheduled for future votes, reflecting active procurement and capital project management by the city council.
