those

as
haven't
item
14
of
Committee
on
real
estate
camp
chairman
moody,
Thank.
E
A
E
Chairman
the
last
item
on
the
amended
budget
was
we
went
into
executive
session
to
discuss
the
Richardson
property
on
Camp
Road
and
basically,
we've
come
out
of,
came
out
of
executive
session
and
recommended
or
instructed
staff
to
prepare
an
offer
at
the.
Our
counsel
gave
us
approximately
what
the
appraised
value
was,
because
there
was
at
one
point,
seven
Lots,
and
what
three
of
those
Lots
are
no
longer
applicable
or
applicable
to
this
thing.
E
So
we
did
four
so
basically
enter
into
an
agreement
with
the
Richardson's
to
buy
those
properties
and
give
us
six
months
to
look
at
do
some
more
due
diligence
on
that,
and
we
also
want
to
be
sure
that
that
contract
is
assignable,
because
there
is
some
other
interest
from
maybe
some
land
trust
or
some
other
interested
parties.
So
maybe
it'll
be
a
joint
thing.
So
anyway,
we
instructed
them
to
move
forward
with
that
right.
Sir.
A
So
moved
and
seconded
did
we
get
a
second
councillor,
Jackson?
Okay,
all
right
all
those
in
favor
signify
by
saying
aye
aye,
those
opposed
now
I
just
have
it
and
I
think
that
does
it
okay!
So
if
there's
no
more
business
to
come
before
this
committee
will
stand
adjourned,
I
feel
hopefully
y'all
feel
like
you
got
your
money's
worth.
Will
you
spend
it
a
lot
of
taxpayers
dollars
in
a
very
short
period
of
time.
