Council approves final reading of resolution authorizing eminent-domain acquisition
Summary
The Park Ridge City Council approved a final-reading resolution authorizing the acquisition of an unspecified property via eminent domain after waiving first reading; the measure passed on a 6-0 roll call and drew no public comment.
The Park Ridge City Council voted unanimously on Jan. 20 to approve the final reading of a resolution authorizing the acquisition of certain real property through eminent domain. The City Manager introduced the item as part of the city manager’s report and asked the council to waive the first reading before taking a final vote.
The council first voted to waive the first reading and then approved the resolution on a roll call vote, recorded as 6-0. The presiding chair opened the item to public comment; no members of the public stepped forward to speak. The City Manager said the January city manager report, which includes departmental updates, is posted on the city website and offered to answer questions about the acquisition if council members requested them.
The resolution’s text authorizing the acquisition was presented as a final-reading action; the council did not identify the property address or additional acquisition details during the meeting. No public comments or requests for additional detail were recorded at the meeting.
Next steps were not specified on the record; the council’s roll-call approval completed the legislative step approved at this session.
