the [6:53] 2 normally at 7:00 and our Planning Commission will be the review of the [7:00] comprehensive plan and one of the items may be to move the Avon ball goals and [7:09] implementation out into a more historical portion of the comp plan [7:14] rather than the goals and [7:20] objectives the [7:24] ARB is there anything to report on the there's no meeting coming up this week [7:31] and your annual report is attached in the [7:38] Pack Mr Bennett you have [7:43] anything okay moving on to Old business the first order moved up from [7:50] Clos session is discussion of the actual litigation [7:56] namely con versus the town of Washington [8:08] okay so are we going to resume after yes this old business is discussed there's [8:15] no close session tonight we just going to do this issue of old business and the [8:20] next issue is going to be the zon violation issue I would think 5 minutes [8:36] after maybe take care of my origin business at home um do we need any why [8:42] would you switch them there's no vote on the uh zoning issue why you just [8:47] switch I think it's going to be very timely so okay all right well I will [8:52] refuse my [8:58] [Applause] okay with that [9:02] does Mr Bennett VI [9:07] mayor Mr conik submitted to the Town Council a [9:15] proposed settlement agreement Mutual release and then there recites that [9:20] there was pending litigation between the town and Mr conic which the time was on [9:26] appeal to petition for [9:31] appeal petition for ciary to the Virginia Supreme Court after that [9:38] proposed agreement was submitted by Mr con the court in fact [9:46] Deni and resolve resolving the matter of the time period fortition for rearing by [9:54] the court is also expired [9:59] if it hurt your ears [Music] [10:02] look no no it hurt go like [10:08] this um has also expired so so the matter of kic versus [10:15] the town of Washington is in fact resolved as a legal matter at this [10:21] time um the agreement reing that that was the matter in [10:26] controversy um that the proposed [10:33] agreement compromise [10:39] ination that's good to [10:43] hear so my suggestion would be for Council to consider just take some sort [10:51] of action to get it off the agenda that uh the Town Council declines [10:59] take any action on proposed the settl agreement proposed by Mr Con on the [11:05] grounds that it's [11:10] now any discussion it's my understanding that all outstanding issues um time for [11:17] appeal having passed without any um subsequent notice to us the town [11:23] of Courts picking up any of the appeals the appeal time for the suprem cour [11:29] having in my understanding pass um these issues are now not only behind us but [11:36] dead we go the time for appealing decisions having run the decisions [11:43] themselves haven't been entered so um based on uh council's U report it would [11:51] seem to be there's nothing to act on as all outstanding litigation is now over [11:56] so it would be nonsensical to entertain any kind of a motion to accept a [12:01] proposal to settle something that is no longer alive so it all being mov I don't [12:08] think any action this evening is necessary and our minutes [12:14] note report and I think we can simply move on it's matter not behind [12:22] us I don't believe do does anybody see anything to the cont so [12:30] he wanted us to settle and we he gave us an offer and we responded and this would [12:37] be resp this is our [12:43] response there's no reason to settle anything it's my [12:48] understanding because there's nothing to settle is that [12:51] correct is that okay there's nothing The Settle so the proposed AG recites the [12:59] the Supreme Court that would be dismissed that's all behind everybody [13:05] now because the Supreme Court fact dismissed the appeal so well so at this [13:11] point the town is going to take no action no further no action [13:16] on Mr con if there's no motion there's no action so [13:22] okay moving on to the next agenda item [13:39] so the next agenda item is a matter regarding potential zoning [13:44] violations again Mr um this is this is an issue that's [13:51] been discussed in some detail by Council after the last meeting [14:00] took uh certain steps that uh in relations to some of the matters that [14:08] were expressed those matters have not been [14:12] resolved this time and my feeling about the matter would be it [14:18] would be appropriate for Council just to pass over this and set over for the next [14:24] meeting um to allow [14:29] longer period of time sufficient period of time [14:33] for the current concerns of council to be addressed in one fashion or another [14:40] and you're addressing this in your capacity as owning [14:44] administrator I can address statute that [14:53] says okay so also on this one um no action needs to be taken at this [15:01] point no I think we would have to move to hold it over to next month's [15:05] agenda that correct this stay on the agenda it's still on the [15:13] agenda I would Town Council we table this for this evening's discussion but [15:18] it over to next month's [15:25] agenda okay [15:31] uh there being no new business I'll move right on to the uh public [15:36] forum I'll open the public forum if anybody has any comments observations [15:41] concerns [15:45] issues [15:50] yes anything if there's nothing I'll um [15:56] close the public for I everybody coming out for that um next and last would be [16:14] ajour all in favor ofour say I meeting
