our deepest gratitude to both Jan and Sean for their many years of dedication and service to our community, and we wish them the very best in their retirement. • And the search continues for our next Economic Development Director with additional interviews scheduled for this week, and we look forward to updating Council as that process moves forward, and that Mr. President, concludes my report. Council President Brossard: Thank you, Mayor. Law Director Gareau, do you have a report this evening? Law Law Director Gareau: Thank you. I believe Mr. Stacey was also a grill -master during one of the opening day picnics. You'd also go out and get a nice array of sausages and hamburgers, which were not good for you, but they were delicious, and we'll miss him because he did a great job with that, along with the staff and everybody else that volunteers. • 1 come back and revisit an old one that hasn't been discussed in a while, and that is Westbury. Westbury Apartments for years, we have engaged them in litigation concerning any one of a number of different property violations. As you've seen over the past three, four years now, there's been scaffolds hanging off the building and people hanging off those, trying to repair the various defects to the exterior of the building. During that process, we added on the issue of the garage. And the garage, the underground garage back there, was in extremely poor condition, and that also is required to be repaired. The problem is the surface lot above the underground garage is in deplorable condition. And they attempted to repair it, but the repair is probably worse than the condition it was originally in. And we've been trying for months to get some compliance, so we're going to bring charges and see if we have to, we will go back to court on civil litigation to get somebody to do something. I don't understand why it's so difficult for them to show the respect to the residents that's necessary, but they keep doing this over and over again. So if they keep doing it, then we'll keep showing up to enforce it to make sure that the residents get the safe environment that they deserve and they're paying for. So I just wanted to let you know that. If you see anything or hear anything about Westbury, we're still working on it, and as these issues come up, we'll continue to use every tool we have to make sure that they comply. I just wanted to let you know about that, and thank you, that concludes my report. Council President Brossard: Director of Finance Radeff, do you have a report this evening? Finance Finance Director Radeff: No report this evening, thank you. 03-03,26 Council Meeting Minutes Page 3
