<br />Regular City Council Meeting <br />June 27,2005 <br />Page 3 <br /> <br />:was sent over the first week in June and the closing is set for early July. Council Member <br />Wilson said it was a simple deed and Mr. Schenk disagreed. Council Member Wilson <br />wanted to know why it took two and one-half months and Mr. Schenk told him that was not <br />the only thing they had been working on. <br /> <br />Council Member Manning said he worked with Mr. Schenk for nearly four years and <br />he did not have one department head complain about Mr. Schenk being non responsive. <br /> <br />Council Member Wilson said that Council needed to have their reviews done in this <br />January or February, so that the present Council can make the reviews instead of after the <br />fact. The Council gave direction for the review fonns to be given to them in December and <br />to be returned by Council prior to January 1, and to be placed on the Agenda for the second <br />meeting in January. <br /> <br />Mayor Fendley called for discussion regarding the Municipal Judge, Tom Hunt. <br />Council Member Manning said he thought that Council should also review and evaluate <br />Judge Hunt. <br /> <br />6. <br /> <br />Consideration of and action on the following resolutions: <br /> <br />A. <br /> <br />RESOLUTION NO. 2005-073: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL <br />OF THE CITY OF PARIS, PARIS, TEXAS, APPROVING AND <br />AUTHORIZING A REQUEST TO THE TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF <br />TRANSPORTATION TO CLOSE THE EXISTING CROSSOVER IN THE <br />IMMEDIATE VICINITY OF 34TH STREET NE ON US 82/US 271 (WHICH <br />IS ALSO LOCALLY KNOWN AS LOOP 286) AS A PART OF ITS GRADE <br />SEPARATION OF US 82/US 271 AT PINE MILL ROAD PROJECT; <br />MAKING OTHER FINDINGS AND PROVISIONS RELATED TO THE <br />SUBJECT; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. <br /> <br />Shawn Napier made a presentation regarding this item.
