Attorney DeBraal assured Commissioner O'Bryan that he would have the opportunity to <br />pose his questions to Mr. Babcock, then addressed his other concern about Mr. Besancon's plans <br />to create an additional lot. <br />Commissioner Wheeler WITHDREW his Motion to <br />approve staff's recommendation to purchase the Besancon <br />parcel. <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner O'Bryan, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Solari, to DENY staff's <br />recommendation to purchase the Besancon property. <br />Attorney DeBraal requested that the Board give him specific direction, so that a counter- <br />offer could be provided. <br />Commissioner Wheeler felt that it would be beneficial to have Commissioner O'Bryan, <br />who has the interest and background, have some type of involvement in the right-of-way <br />acquisitions. He noted that it might eliminate some of the momentary decisions with which the <br />Commission is presented. <br />Vice Chairman Flescher disagreed with some of Commissioner O'Bryan's points about <br />exaggerated prices. He felt that there was some value to the stabilized driveway, and asked staff <br />to provide a cost -analysis, and to explain what constitutes a stabilized driveway. <br />Assistant Public Works Director Chris Mora provided clarification and cost -analysis for <br />an eighteen -foot stabilized driveway, after which Vice Chairman Flescher voiced that the $2,000 <br />cost was not excessive. <br />Commissioner O'Bryan asserted that the subject driveway was not a stabilized driveway. <br />32 <br />June 23, 2009 <br />
