that signed and get it back to utilities and they'll set service up. Thank you. All right. There is no new business tonight. There is no business from the audience. Uh no city attorney's business.
City administrator Council, you have a project report for you. Do you have any questions in reference to it? Material change that we placed on that item was uh November 7th. The RP for the golf course was
advertised. December 1st, we do have a non-mandatory walk through of the golf course for folks. Just a question on those foreclosure lanes. Are we advancing any of those yet or not with your law firm?
So, my understanding and I'll invite Carl up. I think my understanding is they had 10. Is that correct? Selected. Yes. Mayor, council, staff, good evening, chief for the records. Wagner laws indicated they titled cases on all 10.
They've researched title. There were no significant title issues on any and cases are all active current. He's working through the process and anticipated have information back preliminarily on the case filings the end of this
I will say Matt and his firm have been extremely responsive uh they've been easy to work with to date and any questions we've had they've worked through very transparently so so far it's been a great experience good thank you appreciate the update
the Illinois pondweed what do we know about that I've had several people ask what we're doing what can they do whatever. So utilizing our lost inquiries
know that I believe he had a meeting with somebody but I don't know. Any other questions or comments? Okay. Thank you, sir. Uh, moving on to city clerk's business. We have two items today. So, move
second. All right, we have a motion in a second. Can you call the roll, please? Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. All right. Moving on to item 14B. like that
number back on your June 17th. Um I guess it's not moving forward and so it was read for first reading and table. So because it was read first and it was not it was there was no further
action to it. So attorney before I did this but I was thinking since it was tabled I need to remove off of table status. deny it or do something with it so I can get rid of these ordinance numbers. Is that going to cause an issue for it was table?
Yeah, you would want them denied. Um because that would prohibit them from coming back and asking for a change for a year. Are these the ones where we requested they they do a PD? I think for the commercial use
this was one of the commercial property right on scenic and the other was the self storage of the self storage they pulled from my understanding they pulled but this is probably the zoning change
for their commercial use and we decided that we would like to see a little bit more restrictive right and I think they asked us to further it on their radar right now to do anything with it so they didn't know that were still out It's just messing me up with my
numbers because I got to keep reminding myself these numbers are out there and it's getting further and further above where but if you remember they they requested that we table I don't I just want to make sure we don't do
something that's going to prohibit them from coming back. It just said that more information was to be required in central Florida. When I talked to them about it, they were doing nothing further with it at this time and so it said it had to be reverted anyway
because it's not a date specific anyway. So, but so I I think the question here, can we dispose of those ordinance numbers in favor of creating new ordinance numbers when they come back?
Yeah, I don't know why we can't do that. I I wouldn't want to vote those ordinances, you know, against the ordinances. Um, I think you could say those ordinances abandoned. Council believes that's
accurate to abandon the ordinance numbers. You know, I think everybody can appreciate the administrative need for not having to track these two missing numbers forever. We're going to be adding a new calendar here. We're going to have new sets of ordinance numbers off. So,
well, not only resolutions. Well, at some point they will they'll come back to reszone that property and they'll ask the new ordinance number whether this happens this coming year or whether it happens the following year. Question becomes now you've got ordinance numbers
that fall between you know sort them by calendar year if you will. So we would be you know going back and referencing previous numbers. The thing that's going to mess it up if somebody says, "Oh, I know that was approved in 2026." They're
going to be looking in 2026 or whatever or and they're not going to find anything there and they're going to when they want to try to find that, you know, if they were just looking for years, it's going to be So, how do we legally do it? I mean, if you don't want if you want to
stand as it is, I don't have a problem. I'm eventually at some point retire. So person can you know but you know I would prefer that they withdraw their request uh which is sort of what they've done. Yeah. Marissa thought they had she thought that that was
I mean I think they for action that evening they tabled them. Uh and and I was the one that was encouraging them to do that rather than risk having a a no vote. How about we can we we can do whatever you want. I was just
trying to I just thought I could just go away and then I could move on and keep up my numbers, but that was for me. So, if that's not good for the city, then I'll keep track of it for as long as I'm here to it is in the book that, you know, they
haven't done anything with it. So, so we just leave this alone and I'll just keep we can reach out to them and say, "Hey, here's where we are. We need to do something with these numbers and see if they'll give us a Well, they were saying the project was
withdrawn. Marissa said that she thought the project whole thing had been withdrawn. So, she didn't think it was an issue. So, maybe find out, right? Okay. Anything else for discussion from that? I guess
not. This meeting is journed.
