Denton Council approves several routine land-use and procurement items; one SUP extension passes 5-1
Summary
On June 2 the council approved a monopole communications SUP, a municipal parking-lot repairs contract and a one-year SUP extension for a multifamily project after debate; the SUP extension passed 5-1 and council returned previously pulled consent items to the consent agenda.
The Denton City Council took several formal votes on June 2 after evening reconvening. Highlights:
- Consent agenda: Council moved to approve the consent agenda (items F and G accepted). The presiding officer announced the motion passed during the roll call. (Moved: Council member Villareal; Second: Council member Stevens.)
- Specific use permit S25-008A (105-foot monopole at North Elm and Rainey Road): Staff recommended approval and Planning & Zoning had recommended approval. No public speakers signed up; Council moved approval (mover: Council member Villarreal; second: Council member Jester). The presiding officer announced the motion passed (transcript records a 6-0 tally).
- Contract ID 26-0533: Council approved a prequalified vendor list and contract for municipal parking-lot repairs and ADA upgrades not to exceed $17,808,000 over up to five years (mover: Council member McGee; seconded). The motion passed (announced 6-0). Staff said the contract can be used by multiple departments for adjacent work to save mobilization costs.
- SUP extension S26-0533 (3301 North Elm, 67 units): The applicant said rising material and permitting costs delayed construction; staff recommended a one-year extension (the DDC allows one 12-month extension for good cause). Council debated whether to add clearer code definitions for "good cause" and asked for a six-month update; Council approved the one-year extension by motion (mover: Council member McGee; second: Council member Jester) with a recorded vote of 5-1. Staff noted an SUP may be extended only once per code.
No other formal actions were reported from closed session; council reconvened and adjourned at 7:00 p.m.
