G.C. BEHRENS, 1816 TATUM, IRENE MACGREGOR, 1795 FAIRVIEW, AND SPING LIN, 1785 FAIRVIEW, REQUEST FOR CONDEMNATION OF 1 FOOT STRIP ON LINDIG STREET Ciernia presented letters from Behrens, MacGregor, and Lin requesting Council consider condemnation of the 1 foot strip on Lindig Street which they have been unable to purchase from the present owner, such strip being needed for street extension to allow construction of homes at the end of the Lindig Cul-de-sac.

Chenoweth will compute the estimated increase in taxes to be generated by the new homes if the area were in a tax increment district, and each of the parties involved will be made a formal written offer for city participation.
