Mr. Spier now evidenced a new re-plat (see attached) and spoke of a meeting with the residents and apologized to the Council. Councilmember White and Councilmember Rouse both expressed the importance of accounting for the neighbors objections. Because the committee had sent the bill favorably at the last meeting, no further action was needed. BILL NO. 09-24 This as described by ary Gilot merely added language to Ordinance No. 9467-03, clarifying a specific date when property at Bartlett Street previously vacated would take effect. This resolution tied up a loose end. On a motion by Councilmember Rouse, a second by Councilmember Henry Davis, and support by all the bill was sent to Council favorably. UPDATE LED CONVERSION Gary Gilot briefly reported the "good news" found in the annual review of the energy performance contract assessing the dollar savings to date resulting from the conversion of traffic signals to LED. There being no further business to come before the Committee, Chairperson Varner adjourned the meeting at 4:34 p.m. Respectfully Submitted, ~ ~-- ~ ~ David Varner, Chairperson Public Works and Property Vacation Committee
