Board of County Commissioners Meeting Minutes - Final <br />Attachments: 16th Street Ballfields <br />June 23, 2020 <br />County Attorney Dylan Reingold presented that on March 14, 2017, the Board <br />agreed to sell the 16th Street Ballfields to the Jimmy Graves Foundation, Inc. (the <br />Foundation) for $250,000, with both parties in agreement of a deed restriction that <br />would limit the use of the property for recreational activities, youth related <br />activities, and other charitable purposes. He added that the deed restrictions were <br />omitted from the closing documents. He learned that the Foundation and the Jimmy <br />Graves Sports Complex, LLC sought to sell the property for something other than <br />the agreed upon uses. He further explained the measures the County took to <br />resolve the issue. <br />Attorney Reingold recommended the County move forward with filing a lawsuit to <br />protect the County's interest in this matter and the utilization of the law firm of <br />Murphy and Walker for such litigation. <br />A discussion ensued among the Board regarding the 16th Street Ballfields <br />agreement with the Foundation. <br />A motion was made by Commissioner Solari, seconded by Vice Chairman Flescher, <br />to authorize staff to move forward with filing a lawsuit and approved the utilization of <br />the law firm of Murphy and Walker for such litigation. The motion carried by the <br />following vote: <br />Aye: 5- Chairman Adams, Vice Chairman Flescher, Commissioner Zorc, Commissioner <br />O'Bryan, and Commissioner Solari <br />14.
