The next City Council Meeting will be this Thursday, August 7th at 7pm at City Hall. It’s not a long agenda but there are several interesting items on the list.
Here are some highlights:
- Presentations:
- Update on Minto: if you’re interested in PBC western development
- Plat 1 Update: resident Steve Martino spoke about several issues with this older area in the City. This is a response from the City. View Steve’s letter to the city here.
- City Manager Report:
- City Attorney Retention: Max Lohman has left the employ of Corbett, White and Davis and has formed Lohman Law Group. The City Manager proposes that Mr. Lohman be retained rather than taking the services of another attorney from his former employer
- Special Issue Referendum Election: In July the Council pass Resolution 48, 2014 to resolve an issue between the City and the SOE about placing the Term Limits questions on the ballot, assuming PBGNTL submits the required petitions. Apparently issues still exist with SOE.
- Consent agenda:
- Renewal of the City’s health insurance with Florida Blue, a plat change at Downtown at the Gardens, and purchase award for additional benefits – health, life insurance
- Public Hearings:
- Resolution 52,2014 which is an abandonment of a right of a platted right of way by the City – upon which ownership will revert to Paloma HOA and South Gardens LLC – both in agreement with this proposal
- Resolution 48, 2014 approving and ratifying a 3-yr contract negotiated with SEIU
