At this week's Neodesha City Commission meeting, an attempt by a citizen to make a donation to the city hits a snag.
A Neodesha citizen spoke during the public comment section of the meeting and told commissioners that he owned a lot with a burned structure on it that he wanted to give to the city's land bank. The man says he thinks it would make a good parking lot.
Mayor Devin Johnson says he thinks it's a good idea.
However, as the discussion progressed, negotiations hit a snag. The issue? The citizen was speaking during the public comment section and was not actually on the agenda, so the city commission could not take action on his request. A compromise was eventually reached. The man would secure the property and return to the commission on the agenda at the July 10th meeting.
