Homewood Council Meeting - July 13, 2026 6pm

The City of Homewood held a City Council meeting on July 13, 2026, where several procurement and budget-related items were discussed and approved. Key procurement actions included the approval of a $579,378 contract with Southeastern Silcoat for the Waffle House parking lot project on Oxmoor Road, with construction expected to begin by the end of the month and last up to six months. The council also declared miscellaneous vehicles and furniture as surplus property, authorizing their disposal. Additionally, the council authorized the city manager to execute a $5,000 grant award for the Homewood Fire Department to purchase a camera, and approved a resolution supporting a grant application by the Friends of Shades Creek for environmental work in the right-of-way. Budget accountability measures were strengthened by adopting an ordinance requiring any material changes to the annual budget to be approved by ordinance rather than resolution. Several other ordinances and resolutions related to city governance, zoning, and traffic control were also passed. The meeting concluded with council members sharing community updates and upcoming events.
