Homewood panel approves removing unused curb cut, installing sod at 833 Forest Drive
Summary
The Homewood Public Works Committee approved removing an unused curb cut and installing sod at 833 Forest Drive, contingent on a proper indemnification agreement; the motion passed 4-0.
The Homewood City Public Works Committee voted unanimously on Feb. 3 to approve removing an old curb cut and installing sod at 833 Forest Drive, pending a proper indemnification agreement.
The request, filed as item 210125, was presented by a resident, who said the unused curb cut has collected trash and prompted neighbor complaints. “I just wanna put a curve in some grass because it's turned in because I think bringing all their trash and everything. And my neighbors are complaining,” said Miss Hunt, the property owner and applicant.
Committee members discussed the history and condition of the curb cut and agreed the city should allow its removal with the applicant accepting responsibility through an indemnification agreement. Councilor Hardin moved approval; Councilor Gere seconded. The motion passed 4-0.
The committee did not specify a project timeline or cost in the record. The approval was conditional on the applicant completing the city’s required indemnification paperwork before work begins.
The item concluded before the committee moved to the next agenda request for wayfinding signs.
