Agenda Item

B. ID 24-934 Deliberations Regarding Real Property - Under Texas Government Code, Section 551.072; Consultation with Attorneys - Under Texas Government Code, Section 551.071. Discuss, deliberate, and receive information from staff and provide staff with direction pertaining to the potential purchase of real property interests located in the J. Roger, Abstract No 1084, within the City of Denton, Denton County, Texas, generally located along the Hickory Creek Road. The potential purchases are related to the City's Hickory Creek Road Phase 3 Project to construct improvements to Hickory Creek Road (from Riverpass Drive to FM 1830), where a public deliberation of such potential acquisitions would have a detrimental effect on the City's position in negotiations with third parties. Consult with the City's attorneys on the legal status, strategy and options for resolution of litigation in Cause No. PR-2022-00917-A Case Style: City of Denton v. Walter E. Leatherwood and Betty A. Leatherwood, Individually and as Trustees of the Walter E. Leatherwood and Betty A. Leatherwood Living Trust pending in the Denton County Probate Court, Denton County, Texas; where public discussion of these legal matters would conflict with the duty of the City's attorneys to the City of Denton and the Denton City Council under the Texas Disciplinary Rules of Professional Conduct of the State Bar of Texas, or otherwise compromise the City's legal position in pending litigation.
