Condensed Minutes April 24, 2012
The Ralston City Council met in a special session on April 24, 2012, at Ralston City Hall. The meeting was called to order at 5:00 P.M. Roll was called with the following present: Konwinski, Alberhasky, Gillespie, Onken, Krause, Preis, and Groesser. The agenda for this meeting was available at City Hall for public inspection and posted prior to the meeting. The legal notice for the meeting was published in the Ralston Recorder. Claims approved are included and are a part of these minutes.
Groesser gave the Acknowledgment of Open Meeting Law Posting.
It was moved by Alberhasky, seconded by Krause to approve the Consent Agenda. All vote yes, motion carries.
Consideration of Resolution 2012-4- A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASE OF REAL PROPERTY FROM 276 LAKEVIEW, LLC was introduced by Krause. Groesser opened the Public Hearing. Klinker noted the confidential packets enclosed with the regular Council packets. Klinker said this is an agreement that has been talked about, but has not been signed by 276 Lakeview or the City. Klinker said this contract is still subject to negotiation. Klinker said in the MOU enclosed were discussions that it would be necessary to acquire Lot 2 rather than to lease it, and to purchase the lot on the basis that it is improved at the time of purchase. Klinker said the MOU states that it is apparent the City is going to need this parking on a regular basis. Klinker said the agreement with CFM is to purchase this lot as a package with parking lot bonds, but the available parking lot bonds are not sufficient to pay for this. Klinker said, consequently, the City is in the process of getting additional authority for bonds to do the paving on this lot, and this resolution authorizes the purchase of the lot, and on May 1 the City will authorize the issuance of the bonds. Konwinski asked about Article 5.1 (c-d) regarding TIF, if the City of Omaha has entered into an agreement with Menards. Klinker said those are conditions precedent to the City being bound to this contract, and it has to be done before the City has an obligation to close. It was moved to approve Resolution 2012-4 by Krause, seconded by Onken. All vote yes, motion carries.
Public Comments: Klinker expressed his gratitude to all for the cards, flowers, and expressions of sympathy received on the death of his mother.
Council Comments: Groesser thanked all for their prayers and concern when his grandson was ill.
There being nothing further of a general nature to come before the Council, the meeting was adjourned at 5:11 PM.
Next regular meeting May 1, 2012 at 7:00 PM
