Town attorney: emergency management plan now mandatory; railroad parcels not owned by town
Summary
The town attorney told the council a new bill makes the emergency management plan mandatory. Research shows the railroad right-of-way is held by several individual owners and the town has no title; ILAs have expired and county attorney meetings are planned.
During Attorney Comments, the town attorney stated that a newly passed bill makes the emergency management plan mandatory for the town. The attorney also reported that research into the railroad property showed several individual owners hold sections of the railroad and "the town does not have any title to the RR."
The attorney noted existing interlocal agreements (ILAs) have expired and said meetings with the county attorney are planned to address next steps. The transcript does not specify the bill number, the owners identified in the railroad research, or any deadlines for compliance; those details will require follow-up with the attorney's office.
