Stormwater board denies three public-private partnership applications after applicants fail to appear
Summary
The board denied three public-private partnership (PPP) applications—Cobblestone of Center Grove HOA, Timber Valley HOA, and 33 23 Luke’s Way—after applicants failed to attend two consecutive meetings; the board discussed formalizing a reapplication timeframe but noted no clear rule in the current resolution.
The Stormwater Board voted on Jan. 14 to deny three public-private partnership applications after the applicants failed to appear to present their proposals for two consecutive meetings.
Speaker 3 explained staff had attempted to contact applicants by email and that some had responded but that several did not attend. He recommended denying the applications and requiring reapplication if the property owners or homeowners associations wished to pursue the projects again. "They... they're not showing up," Speaker 3 said of applicants who failed to present.
Board members discussed options for handling repeat no-shows, including removing applicants from the agenda until they request placement or formally denying applications for failure to prosecute. Speaker 2 noted there is "no stated process" in the existing resolution and asked whether a reapplication period should be established; Speaker 3 and other members agreed that a formal procedure might be useful but that it is not currently specified.
Speaker 2 moved to deny the public-private partnership applications for Cobblestone of Center Grove HOA, Timber Valley HOA and 33 23 Luke's Way for failure to appear and present; Speaker 1 seconded. A roll-call vote recorded multiple "aye" responses and the board denied the three applications. The board directed that applicants could reapply if they wished, but did not set a formal reapplication timeframe.
The meeting record does not include written application materials or scoring details; Speaker 3 noted that most applicants had scored "very high" initially but that absence at the meeting prevented formal consideration. The board did not adopt a new rule at this meeting; members asked staff to consider whether to add a process for future meetings.
