Jerry Miller: Regarding the closing on the harbor parking lot, the city is proceeding, but they do not seem to be proceeding properly and providing the documentation required by statue. “The seller is not in a position to be able to deliver the property free of possession by other parties” at present. The city will issue a closing for June 26, but the council may be faced with either walking away or compelling the seller to go through with the deal.
2)The city needs to execute an agreement with the DEP regarding the Shore at Crystal Beach Park, deeding it to the public in perpetuity. Sam Seevers moves to have the mayor execute the agreement; Jim Bagby asks why nobody but Miller has a copy.
Kisela: Lindey Chabot (grants manager) thought the Mayor was already authorized to sign it, but it would be safer to get the authorization.
Dewey: Is this an emergency? Miller: “I don’t have a clue. They were prepared to have the mayor sign it, I vetoed that. That’s how it got to your table.”
Kisela: He speculates (his word) that with the state squeezing money out of the fund balances, she wants to get it in before any of the funding can vanish.
Sandy Trammell seconds. The vote is: Unanimous.
