Mayor told the council that, as required by the Liberty site-plan approval, Liberty is required to convey a conservation easement over 16-plus acres to be retained for passive recreation and to deed more than three acres to the city for future recreation use. Copies of the conveyance documents were included with the agenda and have been reviewed by the city attorney's office.
The council did not debate the terms at length during this preview; the mayor said the item will come forward for discussion and vote at the next meeting. The mayor noted that the documents were already reviewed and attached to the agenda packet, signaling staff-level legal review has been completed prior to council action.
