STUART — Two weeks after city commissioners seemed to kill chances for a Brightline station downtown, they reversed course Monday and hope to head back to the negotiating table. The decision came at the end of a six-hour City Commission meeting that went past 11 p.m. following a seven-hour meeting two weeks ago. Commissioners took no formal vote.
