RECONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTION NO. 2420 - DE-ANNEXATION OF PARTS OF
CHERRY HILLS SUBDIVISION:
This item will be tabled until the January 2, 1990 meeting. Joe
Bradley stated that Jerry Cantrell's offer to the city is dependent on
whether the VA Nursing Home is located here and also if the rest of
the plan is de-annexed. We will not know about the nursing home for
some time so we have to keep carrying this resolution because if it was
considered and defeated, Mr. Cantrell could not bring it up for
another year and we might miss the nursing home opportunity.
