Commission approves liens, settlement and law‑firm conflict waiver among routine resolutions
Summary
The commission approved assessing $13,826.15 in city liens for unpaid utility services, a $55,000 settlement in Celestion a Novembre v. City of West Palm Beach, and waived a potential conflict of interest for Greenberg Traurig, P.A. relating to Norden Museum of Art representation.
During routine business on June 9 the City Commission approved several administrative resolutions: (1) a resolution authorizing the assessment of city liens totaling $13,826.15 for unpaid water, sewer and stormwater service for February 2025; (2) a resolution approving a settlement agreement totaling $55,000 in the matter of Celestion a Novembre v. City of West Palm Beach; and (3) a resolution waiving a potential conflict of interest involving the law firm Greenberg Traurig, P.A.'s representation of the Norton (as transcribed "Norden") Museum of Art in connection with a proposed ground-lease transaction and the firm’s representation of the city in unrelated matters.
The meeting summary lists these items as approved; vote tallies and text of the settlement or conflict-waiver resolutions were not provided in the summary. The transcript uses the spelling "Norden Museum of Art"; verification of the museum's correct institutional name should be performed against official records if used externally.
The lien resolution specifies a total of $13,826.15 for unpaid utilities for February 2025. The settlement amount of $55,000 is listed as the total in that litigation matter. The conflict-waiver item states the waiver applies to Greenberg Traurig, P.A. for representation of the museum in a proposed ground lease and the firm’s unrelated representation of the city; the waiver’s terms are not included in the summary.
