Commission authorizes mayor to enforce covenants and help repurchase lands in Highlands Business Park with Cookeville
Summary
Putnam County approved a motion to let the county mayor work with the City of Cookeville to enforce protective and restrictive covenants at Highlands Business Park and to reimburse Cookeville for half of any funds used to repurchase land in the park; vote was recorded as unanimous in the transcript.
The Putnam County Commission authorized the county mayor to take steps with the City of Cookeville to enforce protective and restrictive covenants running with land at Highlands Business Park and to repurchase land previously sold in the park if necessary. The county also agreed to consider reimbursing the city for half the monies Cookeville expends to repurchase lands under those covenants.
Commissioners moved and seconded the measure and, after a roll-call-style affirmation, the clerk reported 24 votes in favor and none opposed. The motion instructs the mayor to coordinate enforcement efforts with Cookeville and to handle any required county reimbursement in accord with repurchase actions by the city.
The item was presented as a response to covenant enforcement needs at Highlands Business Park; no additional dollar amounts for potential repurchase were discussed during the meeting.
