Corrected Scrivener's Error
Resolution No. R-04-0240, adopted April 8, 2004.
Legistar File No. 03-0422
Resolution No. R-04-0240, adopted April 8, 2004, contains a scrivener's error as the
executed Resolution does not accurately reflect the action of the City Commission.
The minutes of the City Commission meeting of April 8, 2004, reflect that
Commissioner Sanchez made a motion to adopt a resolution closing, vacating, abandoning
and discontinuing for public use a portion of the right-of-way located on approximately
Southwest 2" Court between southwest 17th Road and Interstate I-95. The motion was
seconded by Commissioner Gonzalez. The motion passed and the resolution was adopted
by a vote of four to one 4-1.
Unfortunately, the legislation found in Legistar under file number 03-0422 reflects
that the opposite occurred and that the City Commission denied the street closure. The
property owner is trying to move forward with his development and is unable to proceed due
to the scrivener's error. The title of the Resolution was properly advertised and proper notice
to adjacent property owners was provided.
Therefore, the document found in Legistar has been corrected by creating a new
version 2 of the resolution. The new version 2 accurately reflects the closure of the section
of the public right-of-way. Please take whatever additional steps are necessary to update the
Legistar system to reflect the action taken by the City Commission on April 8, 2004. This
memorandum should be attached to Resolution No. R-04-0240, so that any concern regarding
the substitution of said Resolution is clarified.
