The Committee Chair, Jay
Jabour, called the meeting to order at 9:30 a.m.
At the request of the Chair,
Mr. Phillip Peterson, Office of Council Auditor, took everyone through the
marked agenda containing the suggested committee actions.
Concerning Item #15
(2007-933), it was noted that the proposed appointee has withdrawn from
consideration and that a new name was being proposed. Mr. Rohan advised that the committee report
should be to amend and rerefer, assuming the new name is available at the
committee meeting.
On Item #17 (2007-985), the
Chair inquired as to the waivers. Mr.
Bob Williams, Real Estate Officer, stated his belief that a sealed bid process
would not necessarily obtain the best price for the City. He also commented that funds from the sale of
the property would be used to replace Better Jacksonville Plan dollars.
Mr. Rohan requested a
clarification from the Chair as to whether it was intended that staff from the
Office of Council Auditor restate events from the agenda meeting at the regular
meeting, or whether the intent was to simply assist the committee in working
through the agenda. The Chair responded
that his intent was for staff to merely assist in consideration of the agenda.
The meeting was adjourned at
9:36 a.m.
