The Montevallo City Council held a public hearing and approved a Planning and Zoning Board recommendation to re-zone 19 acres belonging to Sue Mikul from Agricultural Open to D-I Conventional subdivision on

Monday night.

During the public hearing, no one expressed objections to the change.

The property is located adjacent to and south of Ammersee Lakes Subdivision.

The council also approved a contract with the Shelby County Sheriff’s Office for jail services at a cost of $30.63 per day.

At the request of Councilmember Hollie Cost, the council delayed action until a special meeting can be called on an extension of the Highway 119 sewer line to Hidden Forest and Colonial Oaks Subdivisions.

Under the policy, the city will charge 50 cents per page for copies and up to $16 per hour for necessary research for such public document requests.

The hour can be broken into 15-minute units at $4 each.
