Summary

The Intergovernmental Committee unanimously authorized the Mayor’s Office to explore cost estimates and negotiate potential purchases of three Seymour parcels for a recreation park and later agreed to adjourn. No budget or purchase amounts were recorded in the transcript.

At the May 8 Intergovernmental Committee meeting, Commissioner Jack Parton moved to give the Mayor’s Office authority to explore cost estimates and recreation programming, to discuss purchases with parcel owners, and to enter agreements as needed to enable the County to purchase the parcels contingent upon Board approval. Commissioner Rick Valentine seconded the motion and it "passed unanimously."

Later in the session Commissioner Carroll Rauhuff moved to adjourn; Commissioner Jack Parton seconded and the Committee adjourned at 1:41 PM. The transcript records both formal motions and the unanimous passage of the authorization regarding the Seymour parcels; it does not record individual roll-call votes, dollar amounts, or any final purchase approvals.
