UNFINISHED BUSINESS Councilmember Oliver Davis stated,Without discussing too much because I know we just had the first (1') reading, the ordinance we just went over, I was in conversations with our City attorney and we were trying to go over the lease agreement. There has been a lot of discussion that the lease of weather amnesty was going to close on April 15`h,but it ended up closing on April 1'. I just wanted to get clarification on that. I know there was a meeting on that and I couldn't make the last meeting but in terms of any planning, well, what is being said is there was no planning and it was just closed. I know Mr. Dave Matthews had a meeting with them yesterday, but, what is your knowledge about the case and everything else? Council Attorney Bob Palmer replied, My knowledge is the original lease agreement for the Tutt Street location provided for a lease that ended on April 15`h of this year. Following a resolution of this Council to keep weather amnesty open until April 1 S`of this year,there will be a two (2)week time period between the end of weather amnesty and the lease terminated. I'm not aware of what happened with April 18t and I'm also not aware of any continued discussion between Hope Ministries, the City and the owner of the Tutt Street location for weather amnesty purposes. 17
