During the discussion Harriet Nolan, a member of the public, said COMMENTS FROM
that she did not hear Council state what the emegency was for PUBLIC
passage of this ordinance tonight.
The Council asked the Village Attorney if there was sufficient VILLAGE
reason for an emergency ordinance and after P1ayor Mundt explained ATTORNEY'S
that the bid must be awarded tonight; that we are on a very OPINION
tight time schedule; and that if delay were to become excessive,
' the golf course renovation project may not be finished in time to
open October 1st, Mr. Gildan opined that there was in fact an
emergency and that the ordinance should be passed on an emergency
basis tonight.
Al Moore, a member of the public, said that as he understood it, COMMENTS
the motion was made to place Bill 564 on first reading to be read FROM
in total; to place it on second reading to be read by title PUBLIC
alone; and neither of those times did Council state what the
emergency was. Therefore, he did not feel that Council was
correct.
Council then agreed to do the motions over again.
The reason for the emergency ordinance is to move the money from REASON FOR
the Golf Course Contingency Reserve Account to the construction EMERGENCY
account, so that the bid for golf course renovation can be ORDINANCE
awarded tonight so as to meet the schedule necessary to ensure
that the work on the golf course will start on April 3rd and
be completed by November 1st.
