Summary

An amendment to Bill 20‑6371 made the alley closure conditional on the District receiving an agreed purchase price of $2,000; the council accepted the amendment and approved the bill as amended.

Councilmember Lewis George moved an amendment clarifying that the alley closure is conditioned on receipt of a $2,000 purchase price to ensure the District is compensated and that the transfer occurs only after payment is received. "That process has since resulted in an agreed upon purchase price of $2,000. This amendment simply reflects that agreement in the legislation," Councilmember Lewis George said.

The chair accepted the amendment without objection and the council approved the bill as amended by voice vote.
