In a recent government meeting, officials discussed a 75-day extension request for due diligence on the Falls Hill property located on Lawnton Road. The contractor has conducted extensive soil testing, necessitating a reconfiguration of the proposed road layout. The extension was deemed reasonable by the commissioners, who noted the contractor's proactive efforts in the project. The new timeline for the due diligence period will extend into late September or early October.

Additionally, the meeting addressed the ownership status of a property on Sheffield and Mammoth Road. Officials discovered that the city has been managing this property since 1990, despite it being taken for taxes in 1960. The confusion arose when the property was incorrectly categorized under the waterworks department during a transition to a computerized assessment system in the 1990s. The city plans to consult with the mayor's office regarding the management and potential sale of the property, emphasizing their long-standing responsibility for its upkeep.

The discussion highlighted the importance of accurate property records and the need for further investigation into the historical management of city properties. The meeting concluded with plans to survey another property adjacent to the Coa pump station, which has been confirmed as a separate lot, streamlining future management efforts.
