STRATFORD OFFICE PARK DISCUSSION - MATTER DEFERRED TO 1/27/88 Wiessner informed Council that no update had been received from Stratford as had been agreed upon in November. Gedde explained that he has not had an opportunity to completely review all of the Stratford documents and was not prepared to give specific advice. He did inform Council he felt they had two possible options regarding a default, 1) refuse to issue Certificates of Completion on the existing buildings, which would halt any sale of the buildings, and 2) Give the developers notice that that they are in default of the development agreement and take steps to gain title to the undeveloped portions of the property. Gedde also commented that the amendment to the development agreement which Council previously approved had been put off by Stratford pending resolution of their legal action against National City Bank.
