The City Council reconvened from executive session at 7:05 a.m. and approved a motion authorizing staff to issue a 90-day notice to the Village of Surfside to terminate the supply and purchase of drinking water.

The presiding officer introduced the motion "to authorize staff to issue a 90 day notice to the village of Surfside for the termination of the supply and purchase of drinking water." The motion was seconded and, after a brief period for comment, the presiding officer called the question and announced that the motion "carrie[d] unanimously." The transcript does not record individual roll-call votes or numerical tallies for the vote; the meeting record states only that the motion passed unanimously.

During discussion, an unnamed councilmember alleged that Mayor Jerry Kane and the interim city attorney "Olson and Olson" had known about a "major water revenue shortage for a couple of months," accused them of covering up losses ‘‘of hundreds of thousands of dollars,’’ and urged that those involved be disciplined or terminated. The councilmember also referenced a past loss involving "the Cove Of Ruby" and cited an unclear numeric phrase in the transcript; the exact figure mentioned in the record is not specified.

The presiding officer responded to the remarks by calling them "a mouthful," offering to provide the "real truth" to anyone who sought it, and then moved to the vote. No named response or denial from Mayor Jerry Kane or from anyone identified as representing Olson and Olson appears in the transcript; the allegation remained unresolved in the meeting.

After approving the termination notice, the council moved to adjourn. A motion to adjourn, seconded by Councilman Matamoras, passed, and the meeting concluded.

Votes at a glance: The council recorded the motion to issue the 90-day termination notice as "carried unanimously" on the record; individual member votes and a numerical tally are not specified in the transcript.

What happens next: The motion authorizes staff to issue the formal 90-day termination notice to the Village of Surfside. The transcript does not record further implementation steps, deadlines beyond the 90-day notice period, or whether any follow-up investigation into the alleged revenue shortfall was ordered.
