We have four executive session items this afternoon and we will have another meeting to discuss number 27. We may take another week to discuss it. 27 is to consider and -- 24 is to consider and take appropriate action on offer to sell needed right-of-way for the cedar valley fits huh road bridge, number 313, replacement project, cip number 01 b 01-203 ba located in precinct 3. That would be the that's the consultation with attorney exception to the open meetings act and the real estate exceptions to the open meetings act. 25, consider acquisition of land for the development of Travis County southwest metropolitan park project. That will be that's the consultation with attorney exception to the open meetings act, real property exceptions also. 26, receive legal briefing with advice on county rule making authority on matters regarding subdivision regulations under sb 873 and other statutes, and take appropriate action. That's the consultation with attorney exception to the open meetings act. 27 is to receive briefing from county attorney regarding settlement negotiations on claim received from keystone construction incorporated for work at northeast metro park. That's the consultation with attorney exception to the open meetings act exception to the open meetings act. And our last item today is number 28, consider and take appropriate action regarding an opportunity to purchase real estate in south central Austin. And that's the real estate exception to the open meetings act. We will discuss these matters in executive session, but will return to court before taking any action.


we have returned from executive session, we with discussed the following items. Number 24, let's just ask staff and mr. -- and Commissioner Daugherty to check with mr. Fleming, the property owner who came before us this morning under citizens' communication, have a chat with him about the project and we'll have it back on the agenda when it's ready. On item number 25, we will ask staff to try to touch base with the property owner there, and see how much time the county could get to respond to some of the questions and offer that we have received. So that will be put back on when we need it, number 25. 26, let's have that back on next week, okay? And staff will check with a couple of people on that one too and see what the appropriate action is to take. We probably ought to get follow-up legal advice from council on that one, but we have pretty much the same language, we got appropriate language there. And item 27, we did not discuss. We'll have that back on next week. We kind of ran out of time. And close to running out of people. We'll have that one back on next week. 28 --
>> where we're at on that one is seeing more on due diligence whether a lease with an option to purchase might be something that could work out in terms of the first right of refusal, but to give instructions to staff to pursue some alternative measures.
>> right. We need to address those legal issues that probably are a lot more important to Travis County. Seconded by Commissioner Gomez. Any more discussion? All in favor? That passes by unanimous vote. By the way, Commissioners Daugherty and Davis had to run to another commitment. They left just a few minutes ago. There is no further business today.
>> judge, just for the purposes of the record, we have made some kind of talk earlier today that we may have to revisit item number 13. That is no longer necessary.
>> okay. Good point. Move adjournment.
>> second.
>> all in favor? That passes by unanimous vote.
