PUBLIC HEARING ON

ORDINANCE 09-04                         

6:02 PM                                                Nancy Hollis I don’t understand it.

                                                                Mayor Fetzer I will explain it.  The City received a request from the Morris’s who own two lots.  They have received an Urban Development Grant.  In order for the Morris’s to get the grant the City of Anderson had to come off as the first lean holder.  After consulting with the City’s Lawyer, the lawyer advised the city to have the Morris’s put $10,000.00 into an Escrow Account.  Then the City of Anderson could release the city as the first lean.  If the Morris’s

finish when the deadline is due, they would get the money back.  And if they didn’t, the money would go to the city.

Nancy Hollis, so is this for one individual or two?

Mayor Fetzer this would be for two.  This same consideration would have to be brought before the council for any other lot owner who would want to do this.  This is the only individual that has brought this before the council.

Nancy Hollis, so I guess my question is has this been put in the actual ordinance?  If anyone wanted to, so that’s why I am confused about it, is it going into the law?

Mayor Fetzer, Anybody that presents it before the council would be eligible for the same kind of deal yes.  That’s what the lawyer advised the city to do.

Nancy Hollis, so this is a for sure thing?

Mayor Fetzer, but we have $10,000.00 of their money sitting in the bank in case they do not fulfill their agreement.  They know that in accordance with the ordinance and the lawyer that they lose that money if they don’t.  Plus the $500.00 deposit they have put down.  Are there any other question?

Nancy Hollis No I just wanted to know.

Mayor Fetzer Anyone else?

 

Ordinance 09-04 2nd Reading
