Special Council Meeting <br />2-24-03 <br />Page 18 <br />Council President Buckholtz said I've always like the house, I mean I just thought I'd---- <br />Mayor Rinker said anything I've ever heard is that people seemed interested in the house. <br />Council President Buckholtz said I've always loved the house if I can just throw that out. <br />Mr. Brett said and he's saying the fagade if I recall correctly in our discussions. It was the farade of <br />the house that he's most concerned about. <br />Mayor Rinker said yeah, I think he understands that we'd put it to these uses or whatever---- <br />Dr. Parker said I'd agree with Patsy. I think that after a few years of not being there, you know, I <br />don't think it's going to matter quite so much to him, although it may very much now. <br />Mr. Marquardt said but can you get out of it then? <br />Mayor Rinker said well I think we could work out something that would be mutually agreeable. <br />Dr. Parker said but this property may be even more important than Issue One funds. <br />Mrs. Mills said you know what's so ironic about all of this, a long time ago Gus Amendola and I <br />went down there when Don Ray had their property up for sale and that's when another <br />administration was here and we were talking to them about purchasing that piece of property-what <br />if we had that piece of property now? We don't. I mean, it looked like why would you ever want <br />that? You know, well, it's come back to get us. <br />Council President Buckholtz said I think that's always the case with real estate. <br />Mr. Marrie said iYs always about the future. That's what I was saying about the future, looking back <br />at it I know hindsight is 20/20. <br />Mrs. Mills said since we're in a position now of creating a park-like scenario all along S.O.M., then I <br />think it behooves us to continue doing the good job we are doing. <br />1VIr. Marrie said I totally agree. <br />Council President Buckholtz said I think we've got the discussion rolling that we want to have and I <br />don't want to stop it in the big picture. But I'd like to dovetail off of what Councilman Riter brought <br />up. I think that he actually made a motion, or I thought you suggested making a- <br />Mr. Riter said I'm going to make a motion after we pass the resolution. We have something on the <br />table to vote on. <br />Council President Buckholtz said we do. <br />Mr. Riter said and after this, I'll make the motion.
