Charlotte City Council · City Council Business Meeting on 2026-02-09 5:00 PM - Feb 09, 2026 · 9 Feb 2026 meeting

And I appreciate that, Maria.

I would like for staff to consider before you make any contractual obligations, like you said, even if I was to make a bid on a home, first of all, I'm going to check with my spouse before I go out and make that decision.

So look at us as that spouse, that before you go out and say, yes, we think that this is a good idea and that council is going to go for it,

or council's going to approve it, before making that assumption, say, here's the range we're thinking about, now you come back and you have a conversation with us, and then if there's support, then we can follow up and say, you know what, we were able to come up with a dollar amount that is comfortable.

Again, I recognize this is fee and lieu, and I appreciate the clarification because I did share something a little differently to my colleague earlier today.

So I appreciate the clarification.

It is not not having preservation.

We do need to support and here's a great way for us to work with the county.

It's the dollar amount that I have a concern with and the idea of saying we don't even have time to have a real conversation.

So, but I respect.

the fact that now all of our colleagues are here, if they choose to vote for it, I am going to be a no, and I have clear reasons why I'm going to be a no, because again, this beautiful beachfront property, I'm not going to be walking over here, but I appreciate that somebody will.

I'm not going to be walking over here.

Thank you, Council Member Mayford.

Council Member Owens.

Yes.

Anything we bring is contingent on council approval.

Council Member Anderson.

Thank you.

Just a question to Councilmember Mayfield.

The motion to defer is to answer what open questions?
