Midway council denies appeal of Homestead Golf Course site-disturbance permit
Summary
The Midway City Council voted to deny an appeal of the Homestead Golf Course site-disturbance permit after deliberation restricted to the written record; the council directed staff to prepare a written decision for consideration in January.
The Midway City Council voted on Dec. 17 to deny an appeal of the administrative decision that issued a site-disturbance permit for the Homestead Golf Course.
During deliberations the chair confirmed that oral testimony had been closed at the Dec. 2 meeting and that tonight’s action would be limited to the existing record. An unidentified councilmember who moved to deny the appeal said the permit "was issued properly" and cited the findings summarized by the city attorney. The motion carried; the council directed staff to draft a written decision for formal action at an upcoming meeting in January.
The council assigned three members to deliberate the appeal and the chair recused from participating in that item. Council members who vocalized assent during the roll call recorded ‘‘Aye’’ for the motion. The council’s action ends the current appeal phase locally; the written decision will provide the formal findings on the record.
No additional enforcement actions or penalties were announced at the meeting. The item had been continued from the council’s Dec. 2 meeting, and council members said they relied on the record and prior presentations rather than new oral testimony.
