Georgetown council authorizes right-of-way purchases, lease extension and approves ‘Project Vapor 2’ after executive session
Summary
Following an executive session, the Georgetown City Council authorized acquisition of right of way along Wolf Ranch Parkway, approved entering or extending a lease with Block 27, LLC for two downtown properties and approved Project Vapor 2; council members indicated unanimous approval on the motions.
Following a closed-session discussion, the Georgetown City Council unanimously authorized three actions related to right-of-way acquisition, a downtown lease and an item identified as “Project Vapor 2.”
The council moved and passed authorization for the city to acquire right of way and fee simple interests for properties along Wolf Ranch Parkway from SH 29 to Riverview Boulevard as part of the Wolf Ranch Parkway Improvements Project. A council member also moved to authorize the city manager to negotiate final terms and execute necessary documents for those acquisitions, as discussed in executive session.
Council members then authorized the city to enter a new lease agreement or extend the existing lease with Block 27, LLC for the properties listed at 101 East Seventh Street and 601 South Main Street, Georgetown, Texas, and authorized the mayor to execute documents needed to effectuate that agreement.
The council’s final executive-session action approved “Project Vapor 2,” with the mover saying only that the motion concerned the version discussed in executive session; no further details about Project Vapor 2 were provided on the public record during the meeting.
All three motions were announced as passing unanimously; no roll-call vote counts or individual vote records were read into the public transcript.
The meeting record also shows a statement that Council Member Parr and another council member were recusing themselves from an item on the consent agenda, but the transcript does not specify which consent item the recusal applied to.
The council took these actions immediately after returning from executive session and before moving to the regular agenda. The motions were introduced and approved without additional public discussion during the open meeting.
