delay. Another series of tests were taken. A conflict between the owner of the Highland
Apartments and Seville on the Green corporate representatives still delays the potable water
permit. Vertical construction continues. Water and wastewater utility easements appear ready
to record. Staff inquired of MNH Enterprises (the project owner) of advertisements
stating that the project was to become condominiums and was told that the advertisement
was only to test the market to see if the owners should consider the change from
