Content of the propose~ Agreement explored - specifically the last paragraph of Section 703 relating to City and Agency owned parcels - two by the Agency and three by the City. Charles Vose, attorney representing Republic addressed this section concerning the purchase price of these parcels stating in part that they would like to acquire those parcels at the acquisition price mainly because they feel it would be consistent with the Agreement .. also they would be incurring legal fees, appraisal fees should it become necessary to go to condemna- tion or go to statutory price. They will also have to purchase the land and whatever improvements are on the site and costs will be far in excess of the market value of a particular piece of property. Modification of this paragraph was discussed. It was the consensus of the Agency and, Council Members that an appraisal of the current parcels be obtained .. it was noted that these parcels have been held for several years without receiving any taxes and now consideration is being given to turning them over to a developer without this knowledge .. that after receiving the current market value a price could then be established. It was MOVED by Member Saelid, seconded by Member Gilb and carried on roll call vote as follows that the Disposition and Development Agreement with Republic Development Company be APPROVED with the exception of the last paragraph, Section 703; that the subject parcels are not considered part of the site but may become part of the site by amendment to the Agreement.
