RESOLUTION 84-29 A RESOLUTION CALLING FOR A PUBLIC HEARING ON REASSESSMENTS FOR ALBERT/PASCAL IMPROVEMENTS Engineer Schunicht asked if only the streets and curb and gutter are to be assessed and the storm sewer to be paid from the Minnesota State Aid funds, and Council replied in the affirmative. Mayor Eggert informed that the City Attorney and the Attorney for Bullseye Golf have discussed a price for purchase of the liquor store and that they have agreed to propose a price based on the average between the two appraisals. Neil Maday, owner of Falcon Service Center, asked why the City would sell the store to Bullseye for less than the $162,000 offered by P-2 Properties, Inc. and if the store is sold to someone other than Bullseye how it would affect Bullseye's use of the station property since the plans show both the liquor store and station in the project. Mayor Eggert replied that the City has agreed if Bullseye wishes to purchase the liquor store at a price considered fair by the Council, the liquor store would become part of the project. Mayor Eggert stated that it is difficult to speculate on the sale of the liquor store as negotiations are on-going.
