As we reported two days ago HERE, City Attorney Jim Dye was recently requested to provide a legal opinion regarding the procedure applicable to a "reconsideration" of the May 27th Commission vote denying approval of PAR's 308 Pine Ave. site plan. Mr. Dye's letter cryptically danced around who exactly requested the opinion so we asked who that person may have been and why the opinion was sought.
Well, no one has stepped forward to claim responsibility but, lo and behold, the "reconsideration" has been listed as the first item on tomorrow's Commission Agenda (which you can view HERE). Apparently here's what will happen:
This will not be a rehearing of the 308 Pine Ave. site plan application. The Commission will only be discussing a motion to reconsider the May 27th vote. And they will be doing so in spite of (1)Dye's clear warning that there is no "formal rule" to guide the Commission and (2) his finessed tap dancing around whether such a motion is even authorized at all. Come on, really? I mean, having your lawyer tell you that it's "possible" that you "may" be okay would not appear to be particularly comforting.
So the saga continues. Stay tuned.
