Regular Council Minutes <br />5/16/OS <br />Page 9 <br />Mr. Brett said Council authorized it during discussions in Executive Session; it is for <br />appraisals. <br />Mr. Marquardt said it seems like an exorbitant amount--$3,000-to appraise 2 properties-- <br />the Lanese and Stabile properties. It sounds like a lot of money to me for 8 acres with one <br />house and one out building on it. I think it is too much money. <br />Council President Buckholtz asked, who can supply information on what we have paid <br />before? <br />Mr. Brett said it all depends on who you authorize to do the appraisals and basically what <br />they charge. <br />Mr. Chapman said my experience is when you want good people, that is what you pay. <br />Council President Buckholtz said we have done a lot of appraising; O.D.O.T. did all the <br />appraising for the right-of-way takes; we have had in-house appraisals so we have an idea-- <br />Mr. Brett said there was also a timing factor but I believe that the Mayor had mentioned <br />who he would be using during the Session. <br /> <br />Council President Buckholtz said it seems like that is what they charged. <br />Mr. Marquardt said well for the nature of the property, it is an exorbitant amount in my <br />opinion. <br />Council President Buckholtz asked, any other comments? <br />There were no comments. <br />ROLL CALL: AYES: Council President Buckholtz, Mrs. Cinco, Mr. Marrie, Mrs. Mills and <br />Dr. Parker <br />NAYS: Mr. Marquardt Motion Carried <br />Expenditure Authorized <br />• A motion to authorize an expenditure not to exceed $15,000 to Business <br />Interiors and Environments, Inc.
