Here we go again. More litigation.
The answer was known to the mayor and council prior to 10:00 AM today (Thursday, 9/10/2020), but there was no communication to us, the villager residents, until after I posted my 3:00 PM blog update. To the best of my knowledge, this information was not made public until an email was released at 5:17 PM.
The full story is as follows (CLICK HERE to view the complete LUXCOM communication):
LUXCOM attorneys advised Palmetto Bay's add-on, outside counsel, that it is their opinion "... that the Village did not negotiate in good faith at the Mediation regarding the number of units. "As mediation is confidential, (The attorney)... is unable to say more." (and it is their opinion, and we, the residents, are not privy to significant facts).
The email may at one time been considered a privileged communication, but it was released and is now public record.
The results of the failed meeting last night are as follows (and again, as detailed in the e-mail):
- LUXCOM terminates the mediation process.
- The Village was instructed to respond to the Bert J Harris demand no later than Friday, September 18 - no further extensions will be granted.
- A formal Bert J Harris action "(and any other appropriate causes of action will be filed shortly thereafter.
- "Further more, all pending litigation and the Petition for Writ will now be moved forward expeditiously."
