huey3@comcast.net Posted April 5, 2011 at 03:30 PM Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 at 03:30 PM Two months ago a motion regarding giving a large amount of money ( interest free) with a 10-15 year payback to a private land developer was made by an elected public body. The motion narrowly failed. Some members of that public body now want to re-address that issue this month with another motion to give away the same amount of money. Can this be done? Does the verbage of the motion have to be changed? Help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or the wording. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
