Audit notice history for deferred North Boulevard Terrace rezoning
Why now: Z18, the single-family-to-multifamily rezoning at North Boulevard Terrace and Plymouth Road, has been deferred multiple times before reaching Under Advisement status on the April 22 Dallas City Council agenda, producing a multi-session hearing record where each deferral requires its own compliant notice under Dallas's zoning ordinance.
What to do: Before the April 22 vote on Z18, pull the City Plan Commission minutes and public hearing notices from each prior deferral to verify proper re-notice was provided at each postponed session — a notice defect in any prior hearing creates a procedural challenge ground that must be documented before the ordinance is published, since the statutory challenge clock begins at adoption.
Act before: After ordinance is published and the statutory challenge period begins
Pull Meadow Road housing grant agreement before council approves
Why now: The April 22 agenda includes a $13.5M Chapter 380 economic development grant for The Meadow Project at 8130 Meadow Road structured as mixed-income, transit-oriented, and permanent supportive housing, with deal conditions embedded in the council backup rather than the agenda summary.
What to do: Download the Chapter 380 agreement text from the April 22 council packet and review the affordability set-asides, permanent supportive housing unit minimums, and clawback provisions before the vote — these terms will function as the city's baseline template for future transit-oriented development subsidy negotiations, and post-approval modifications require a formal contract amendment.
Act before: After council approves the Chapter 380 agreement and terms are locked
Identify vendor in $26.8M Dallas data center cooperative contract
Why now: The April 22 Dallas City Council agenda schedules a $26.8M, 10-year data center managed-services cooperative agreement for authorization, but the public agenda summary does not name the vendor — the contract details live only in the council packet backup.
What to do: Pull the April 22 council backup materials for the data center managed-services item to identify the vendor and the cooperative purchasing vehicle — a 10-year, $26.8M managed-services contract awarded without a local competitive bid warrants scrutiny of the vendor identity, any prior city contracts held by that firm, and what performance guarantees are embedded in the agreement.
Act before: After council authorizes the agreement and vendor name enters the public record
