“Yeah, again, there's always a risk. I mean, we took the risk with, frankly, with your firm.

I would rather the city take the risk and get this right than to just continue just because we've always done it. And Krabbe's, like Sean said, has been a great partner.

“I would, like Council Member Fletcher, Deputy Mayor said, recommend going to them, seeing if they will cure it themselves. If not, we might have to walk away from this. This will be too much, I think, for the city to take on and find the funding on its own.”

“Just to be clear, they're not asking for us to get it on the tax roll tomorrow. And from my conversations with Dan, this can be voted on any time for the 2028 tax roll, is that correct?

“Just last thing, I noticed the owners of the golf course were here in the audience earlier. and I just wanted to acknowledge and appreciate they were here. I've been talking with them and would like the city to continue our talks to look at that agreement and continue our partnership with them, but that's another conversation for another day.”
