Bennet council approves Quincy right-of-way project; attorney urges new plat and county confirmation

At the Jan. 19 meeting Mayor Ryan Cheney introduced the Quincy Right-of-Way project for council consideration. City Attorney David Solheim recommended that the city prepare a new plat and obtain signatures from all property owners agreeing to the proposed lot changes, and that the city secure confirmation from Lancaster County before finalizing the changes.

The council voted to approve the project; the roll call shows YES votes from Jesse Schmidt, Pete Simmons and Dan Zieg. Council member Josh Buck recorded an abstention marked "with conflict." The minutes do not specify the nature of Buck’s conflict.

Next steps identified in the discussion include preparing the new plat and obtaining Lancaster County’s confirmation before recording or implementing the lot changes.
