MOTION FAILED
Alderman Cookson
If you’re not going to allow for a public hearing of a resolution, why are we wasting our time doing a feasibility
study?
President McCarthy
Would you like to move for indefinite..
Alderman Cookson
I’m just curious. The Board of Education is supportive of it. They are interested in, again, potential opportunity for
their admin building since they can’t move into Burke Street.
President McCarthy
Alderman Cookson, the vote has been taken. The debate is over on that motion.
