He agreed the Council could receive additional information and 8 <br />request the Court continue that matter to another date. 9 <br /> 10 <br />Mayor Marty asked staff to make that request of the court. 11 <br /> 12 <br />Mayor Marty stated he stopped by the station to ask why the grass was not being mowed but Mr. 13 <br />Bteibet was not at the station. He asked Mr. Bteibet to meet with staff to sort out the issues. 14 <br /> 15 <br /> Ayes-5 Nays-0 Motion carried. 16 <br /> 17 <br />E.
