Madam Clerk read Resolution 1125-10, which would authorize the county mayor to enter a second interlocal agreement with River City Company in the city of Chattanooga to complete construction documents for the county's riverfront parks framework at a cost of up to $2,200,000.
County staff explained the item is for the construction-document phase of the riverfront project. Matt Fultz said, "This is the construction document phase. We've done design. This is construction documents," and noted that $1,100,000 would come from the city and $1,100,000 would come from funds the county expects to recover from a $15,000,000 state grant for the project.
Commissioners did not take a formal vote. The chair said the commission would "take this up next week," effectively deferring final action and any formal vote until the next meeting. No motion or vote tally was recorded in the transcript.
Because no formal action occurred, staff or the mayor will return the item for a subsequent public vote, at which time the commission will record final motions and any roll-call votes.
