Council agenda missing significant public records

   October 2, 2018

The mayor’s office has released the agenda for next week’s Pensacola City Council meeting.  Two items lack the necessary public records for the public to review what will be presented at the Thursday, Oct. 11 meeting:

Item: 18-00384 PROPOSED PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT PARCELS I, IA AND III INCLUDED IN THE SEVILLE HARBOUR LEASE – sponsored by Mayor Hayward. The attached document is an appraisal dated June 6 that appraises the parcels at $725,000. However, no sales agreement is included. The public has no indication whether a portion of the purchase price will be offset by the legal fees the city owes Seville Harbour.

Item: 18-00364 AWARD OF CONTRACT- Bid #18-035 BAYVIEW COMMUNITY RESOURCE CENTER – also sponsored by Mayor Hayward. The contract is not attached. The contract presented to the council in May was nearly $2 million over the budget. According to the city’s website, the bids aren’t scheduled to be opened until 2:30 p.m. Monday, Oct. 8. That’s a mighty tight timetable.
