An addendum to this week’s council meeting has been posted on the city’s Web site. It reads:

82. Staff presentation regarding the answers to questions from Council and the public regarding the proposed development at Northcross Mall and consideration of direction to the City Manager. (Council Member Brewster McCracken, Council Member Jennifer Kim and Council Member Sheryl Cole)

The language is easily broad enough to allow for action – denial of the site plan due to public notice violations ranking high on neighbors’ Christmas lists. We’ll find out Thursday if they get a big box under the tree, or what they really want – a smaller or nonexistent Wal-Mart.

UPDATE: We initially titled this Northcross Resolution Posted, when the municipal hair-splitter in us pointed out it’s actually an item. So there.
