UNFINISHED BUSINESS <br /> Health Benefits <br /> Motion by Council Member Sweeney, seconded by Council Member Nelson <br /> to table the Heath Benefits. All in favor. Motion carried unanimously. <br /> Eagle Trucking <br /> Mr. Hoeft reported the City received a "first draft" fourteen -page purchase <br /> agreement. Mr. Hoeft added there is no purchase price in the document, because <br /> there has been no action by Council to indicate what the City is willing to pay for <br /> the property. The draft purchase agreement includes indemnification language <br /> regarding environmental issues. The property owner is not opposed to the <br /> language due to the anticipation of receiving a clean bill of health from the <br /> MPCA. Another specific direction given to Mr. Hoeft was to indicate in the <br /> purchase agreement concern about a well underneath the building, which resulted <br /> in the purchase agreement stating the City would like the well capped by the <br /> property owner prior to purchasing the property. Mr. March indicated the <br /> property owner is not willing to cap the well. The capping of the well would cost <br /> the City approximately $1500, and it is an item the City will have to decide on <br /> when determining the overall offer for the property. Mr. Hubers was present and <br /> requested guidance from Council on a timeline and purchase price. Mr. Hoeft <br /> advised what typically happens is Mr. Hubers or someone on his behalf would <br /> start negations between Mr. March and Mr. Hoeft. If any pertinent issues come <br /> 7 <br />
