As indicated, the City Council discussed this matter at its last <br />regularly scheduled Council meeting on October 27, 2004, and determined that it was premature to <br />proceed with further purchase negotiations regarding the same. Since we last met, the Council has <br />become aware of other possible properties that may provide access to the lake and tie in with the <br />proposed trail that would run along the south side of the redeveloped County Highway l4IMain <br />Street. <br /> <br />I should emphasize that the Council has not closed the door on purchasing the above-referenced lot. <br />However, it does want to explore these other options that have become available. If at a later date the <br />Council determines that the LaMotte Drive property is preferable, I'm sure you win be hearing from <br />us. The Council also understands that the lot may not be available at a later date, and will deal with <br />that situation as it presents itself. <br /> <br />I do want to thank both you and Mr. Schneider for taking your time to meet with the City <br />Administrator and myself. Please let me know if there are any further develDpments regarding this <br />property that you feel the City should be aware of. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br />BAJWA;GVZY 6!:..S::rn4. <br /> <br /> <br />_.-~..-, <br /> <br />/.. > ....:..:c:::.S;~,~";::/:~, \ <br />/ __:::.,.1 / I <br />,./,,- ,...(-:,<~~~""" /'....~.r' j <br />L:..-....~:::r~il~A~to / <br /> <br />JDH:set <br />cc: Centerville City AdministratorE,<obu'hed I938.An EOEIAA Employ" <br />
