Summary

Council voted not to declare interior boards, doors and flooring in the Wilson Building surplus and to prohibit removal, citing liability concerns.

The council discussed and rejected a proposal to declare interior components of the Wilson Building (111 and 113 E. Cherokee St.) as surplus and to permit their removal. Councilmember Steve Zeman moved, and Rick Cardwell seconded, a motion to not declare anything surplus or allow removal because of liability concerns. The motion carried unanimously.

The minutes record the liability rationale as the primary reason for the decision; no alternative disposition or remediation plan for the building interiors was adopted at this meeting.
