Mr. Bullock encouraged the plans. <br />Consent Ap-enda <br />Mayor Hashmi inquired of Council Members if they wished to pull any items from the <br />Consent Agenda for discussion. Council Member Clifford asked for item 11 to be pulled for <br />discussion and Mayor Hashmi asked that item 6d be pulled for discussion. Council Member <br />Clifford said as all citizens of Paris, he would like to see more retail and thought the main way to <br />do that was through primary job creation. He said in order for him to determine if the contract <br />should be extended, he would like to first review all of the retail reports generated by Retail <br />Coach. Council Member Clifford also said he would like to know whether or not there had been <br />net growth retail in Paris as a result of the recruiter and if the money had been spent wisely. He <br />said he would like to table this item pending that information. With regard to item 6d, Mayor <br />Hashmi inquired how a long -term lease could be transferred from one person to another, without <br />going to first person in line on the hangar waiting list. Mr. Godwin explained this specific <br />hanger was built by the owner and the lease was a ground lease, and re- assignment of hangars <br />built by individuals was allowed. Mr. Godwin further explained that the waiting list for hangars <br />was for hangars built by the City. <br />A Motion to table item 11 was made by Council Member Clifford and seconded by <br />Council Member Pickle. Motion carried, 7 ayes — 0 nays. <br />With the exception of item 11, a Motion to approve the Consent Agenda was made by <br />Council Member Frierson and seconded by Council Member Clifford.
