Council presented settlement agreement with Lance Oil over occupation tax fees
Summary
Council considered a settlement with Lance Oil Company concerning occupation tax certificate fees mistakenly charged over five years; staff said the settlement was signed by the company and contains no admission of liability and requested authorization for the mayor to sign.
The council work session opened discussion of a business-resolution settlement with Lance Oil Company related to occupation tax-certificate fees that staff said had been charged in error over the past five years.
A presenter said staff "have reached the settlement agreement which has been signed by the company" and asked the council to authorize the mayor to sign the settlement. A council member noted on the record that the mistake was overlooked by both parties and that "there was no ill intent," while staff emphasized the settlement "states specifically that there is no admission of liability by either party."
Council discussion on the item was brief and framed as a consent matter; there was no recorded formal roll-call vote in the work-session transcript. If authorized at the forthcoming meeting, staff said they would have the mayor sign the agreement to finalize the settlement.
No settlement amount or financial details were stated in the work-session transcript.
