[RP TownTalk] EXECUTIVE SESSION LAST NIGHT on Cafritz Development

[Jeffrey Yorke]

It doesn't seem fair that this was posted at 11:45 p.m. the night before the
meeting.

Kate,

You must have missed all the other posting of this on the public schedule.
This was a public notice more than a week ago. Councilmen Thompson's note
serves merely as a reminder, and as a courtesy.
