Regular City Council Meeting - July 13, 2026

The Madison Heights City Council held a regular meeting on July 13, 2026, where several procurement and contract matters were addressed. The council approved the addition of a department heads contract to the agenda and subsequently approved that contract. A significant procurement decision involved the purchase of a BC1800 XL brush chipper from Vermeer Midwest of Flowerville for $102,853 through the Sourcewell purchasing cooperative, aimed at replacing aging equipment in poor condition. The council also discussed zoning and land use issues related to a conditional rezoning request for a tobacco smoke shop, ultimately voting to deny the rezoning based on planning commission recommendations and zoning ordinance standards. Additionally, the council reviewed public safety and infrastructure concerns, including storm response and power outages, but no further procurement actions were noted. The meeting included community updates and acknowledgments of city staff efforts during recent storms.
