Council Member Wilson asked for discussion regarding the drainage ditch. Ernie Clark said the adjoining property owm:r, which is Texaco should have put money in escrow with the City for the cost of the ditch. Council Member Wilson stated our ordinance requires a lined ditch. Shawn Napier said the circumstance was unusual in that Texaco was not required to concrete line the ditch or put money into escrow to build their part of it. Council Member Wilson urged the ordinance be followed, but that they encourage this new business. Further, Council Member Wilson suggested they look at putting in the ditch, with the owner paying half the cost and the City paying half the cost. He stated they could charge it back by placing a lien on the property. Council Member Biard said they should put a cap on the dollar amount.
