The Scott City Council voted unanimously Monday to authorize the city to begin condemnation proceedings for three properties.
Council Member Victor Phillips moved to start the condemnation process for 225 West Cherry St.; Council Member Heather Ingvalson seconded, and the motion carried with all members present voting in favor. Phillips then moved to begin condemnation proceedings for 1915 Mary St., seconded by Council Member Mike Rhymer; that motion also passed unanimously. A third motion, to start condemnation at 1406 Warner St., was moved by Phillips and seconded by Rhymer and passed without opposition.
The motions were procedural approvals to begin the legal condemnation process; no further details about property owners’ identities, estimated timelines, or potential relocation assistance were provided during the meeting. Mayor Rick Brashear and council members did not discuss any appeals or a timeline for formal hearings during the session.
The meeting record shows Jack Howard was absent. The council took the votes by voice; the minutes record the motions as “All in favor; None opposed.” No individual roll-call vote counts were read into the record.
