12. Housing, Planning, & Development Committee report regarding meeting held July 20, 2020. (to be provided) Councilmember Shachner read the following report into the record: There were two things on the agenda, the first being the ordinance that would allow the mayor to enter into agreement to sell property on Plover Street. We learned that the city acquired the property through tax foreclosure and since 2018 the city has been in talks with the owner of the neighboring property. They came into agreement pretty recently that if the potential buyer had the parcel appraised and provided a plan with what they were going to do with the property, that the city would sell it to them. It will be used as a sideyard and proposes adding fencing. I was informed by the Law Director that this is an ordinance and will need a second reading in order for it to be adopted. Since this involves the sale of land, I know people are anxious to get things in writing and finish the job, so I would recommend suspending the rules and passing the ordinance tonight. We talked about Resolution 2020-39, which involved designating express parking spots under certain circumstances. We heard from Dave Baas who has done extensive research on what processes to go about in using this and permit it. We're going to have further discussion and in the resolution hammer out a process that businesses can use this kind of parking. We're going to move to defer that one for later. Councilmember Shachner made a motion, seconded by President O'Malley to receive and file the report. A roll call vote was taken as follows: Yeas —Bullock, Kepple, Litten, Neff, O'Malley, Rader, Shachner Nays —None Motion passed. The report was received and filed. 13.
