Arcadia Lakes council files nonsuit in Angel Oak litigation after executive session
Summary
After an executive session about a Berry Tree Lane parcel dispute, the Arcadia Lakes council returned to public session and unanimously voted to file a nonsuit without prejudice in the matter of Angel Oak and the Town of Arcadia Lakes.
The Arcadia Lakes Town Council voted unanimously April 3 to file a nonsuit without prejudice in litigation involving Angel Oak and a Berry Tree Lane parcel.
Mayor Mark W. Huguley moved to file the nonsuit after the council held an executive session to discuss the pending litigation; Mayor Pro Tem Linda Jackson seconded the motion and it carried unanimously. The minutes state that no action was taken during the executive session itself and that the motion to file the nonsuit occurred after the council returned to public session. Town Attorney Scott Elliott was present for the meeting; the minutes do not record public comment on the litigation or specify legal grounds for the nonsuit.
The council's action ends the session's public record on the matter for this meeting. The minutes do not list any settlement terms, timelines for re-filing, or next court dates, and they do not report a vote tally beyond "carried unanimously."
