Mr. Paladin reiterated how the greenway protects the river by acting as a buffer between <br />the river and the KB Home Development that is currently being built. <br />There being no other speakers, the Chairman closed the Public Hearing. <br />Commissioner Davis believed the MRC could manage the property/program better than <br />the County. <br />MOTION was made by Commissioner Davis, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Flescher, under <br />discussion, to approve the Option Contract for purchase of <br />the Susan and Robert Russell property, and authorized <br />staff to proceed with due diligence and close the purchase. <br />Chairman O'Bryan felt the acquisition for conservation and protection of the river/buffer <br />area, and the MRC's willingness to assist with the trails, visitor center, and removing the exotics, <br />all justified the purchase price. <br />The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and the <br />Motion carried by a 4-1 vote (Vice Chairman Solari <br />opposed). The Board approved the Option Contract for <br />purchase of the Susan and Robert Russell property, and <br />authorized staff to proceed with due diligence and close <br />the purchase, as recommended in the memorandum of <br />January 4, 2010. <br />10.
