Ayes – 4 Nays – 0 Motion carried. Council Member Stigney stated there is language in this resolution, which pertains to the expansion of the golf course on property that is currently wetland and was previously owned by Sysco. He stated it was his understanding that Sysco dedicated this land to the City subject to a covenant that it would be retained as wetland, which conflicts with the proposal to expand the golf course. He requested clarification. Golf Course Superintendent Hammerschmidt indicated he has copies of all of the deed documents pertaining to the golf course property, and the City Attorney has reviewed these documents in terms of the feasibility of expanding this section of the golf course. He stated he has never seen any covenants in those documents that place any restrictions upon the use of that land. Council Member Stigney pointed out that if there were any restrictions, this would create a conflict. Superintendent Hammerschmidt stated to his knowledge there were none.
