Committee advances appropriation to purchase parcel for ballfields; mayor seeks emergency approval
Summary
The finance committee voted to forward an emergency appropriation to buy parcel 0500039104019 from the Catholic Bishop for ballfields and closing costs; the mayor said volunteers are ready and the purchase could allow fall use.
The mayor asked the finance committee to approve increased appropriations to purchase Parcel 0500039104019 from the Catholic Bishop to secure ballfields behind the church. He said closing is imminent, that the administration padded closing costs modestly (estimated under $2,000), and that volunteers have signed up to help ready the fields.
Committee members moved to send ordinance 26-28 to the full council with emergency to make payment and secure the property for potential fall use. The motion passed unanimously in committee. The mayor said any closing savings would return to the general fund.
