What to Know - December 2 Council Cycle

December 1, 2020 – City Council will consider the contract to relocate the burn tower training structure from the former Wacky Waters to the new training location at Public Works. In order to be most cost effective, the contract with Goodwin House Moving Inc will include cutting the tower in half and transporting it in two trips for $79,000. The alternative was to have MidAmerican Energy raise the power lines along the least invasive route at a cost of $250,000. View full agenda here.
           
The City of Davenport and the Amalgamated Transit Unit, Local Union No. 312, exchanged initial proposals on November 9, 2020 for a four-year collective bargaining agreement. On November 23, 2020, the parties tentatively agreed on a new agreement for the period July 1, 2021 – June 30, 2025 which will be considered by City Council this cycle.
 
The December 2/9 Council cycle will be the last for 2020. City Council will resume meetings in the new year beginning with the first Committee of the Whole on January 6, 2021.
