Pearland agendas: multifamily zone change, fire and lumber contracts, UDC workshop — but no minutes posted yet
No minutes have been published for any Pearland meeting held in the past two weeks, according to the records reviewed for this roundup. Every item below is drawn from an agenda, so none of it reflects a recorded vote or final outcome. The Oct. 12 City Council regular meeting agenda carried the items with the largest listed dollar amounts and the largest tract of land.
City Council, Oct. 12: land use and annual contracts
The regular meeting agenda listed two public hearings. One was a zone change request for 15.0372 acres north of Magnolia Parkway and west of Manvel Road for a multifamily development. The other was a Conditional Use Permit for a tattoo or body piercing studio at 1331 E. Broadway Street, Suite L.
The same agenda listed four annual contracts: medical supplies with Bound Tree Medical, LLC at $150,000 annually and with Life-Assist, Inc. at $162,600 annually; uniforms with Got You Covered Work Wear and Uniforms at $190,247 annually; and a citywide contract with Pearland Lumber Company for hardware, supplies and lumber at $150,000 annually. These are contract amounts as stated on the agenda, not payments made.
