Mayor Blesener, Council Member <br />McGraw, Public Works Superintendent Dircks, Public Works Lead Worker Steele, Building Official <br />Westerhaus and I toured the property on November 2". Based on the information gathered during this <br />tour and other information we have assembled, staff if recommending we call for a closed session to <br />consider the development of an offer to purchase this site. We should also consider the potential <br />acquiring additional properties in the vicinity of 167 South Owasso as alternatives to the Norms <br />Tire Site. <br />Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 13D.05, Subdivision 3(c) allows cities to close meetings for the purpose of <br />developing offers on real- estate. I have also checked with the City Attorney who concurred that closing <br />the meeting for the purposes as discussed is consistent with our statutory authority. <br />
