MOUNT HOLLY - The City Council meets Monday, Nov. 9, at 7 p.m. in the Municipal Complex, 400 East Central Ave., according to the meeting agenda.

The consent agenda includes a $460,404.36 contract with Dawn Development Company to replace about 1,800 feet of asbestos cement waterline on Broome Street, and a $6 million capital project ordinance for South Gateway Road Improvements Phase 2, funded by loan proceeds, per the agenda packet.

Council is also asked to call public hearings on data-center rules in the zoning ordinance (Planning Commission Dec. 7, council Dec. 14), the Chestnut Hills rezoning of about 114.9 acres for up to 200 homes and duplexes (January 2027), and a petition to close part of Elm Street (Dec. 14).

Public hearings Monday cover a rezoning of 14.47 acres at 801 W. Central Ave. from B-3 to heavy industrial, which the Planning Commission favored 6-0, temporary-sign and tree-term changes, and a continued street-closing request on N. Alexander Street and Patterson Avenue. Council also plans a closed session.
