Mayor Ed Rieker called the work session after a meeting on Sept. 22 where residents confronted him about the filing of House Bill 1130. State Rep. Karla Drenner, D-Avondale Estates, introduced the bill at Rieker’s request, but commissioners had never discussed it publicly or passed a resolution in favor of it. Many residents of Avondale and the surrounding communities it would like to annex were surprised to hear about the bill. Riker called that a mistake, and each commissioner offered an apology for the situation.
