The Orange Beach City Council held a special meeting on June 29 and voted down a motion to authorize an independent appraisal of the Beech RV Park, a 23.7-acre parcel. City Administrator Ford Handley recommended against the $14 million purchase, citing drainage costs of $1–5 million, staffing needs, and the impact on the city's $120 million reserves. The motion for a $15,000 appraisal failed, and the council entered executive session to discuss pending litigation.
