On the fourth day of the trial a settlement was reached. <br /> Mr. Vaughan had asked for$1,500,000. for the property. He also indicated that taking <br /> part of his property diminished the value of the existing property.

However, <br /> there was also land that was intended to be taken but was not. <br /> Both parties agreed to the settlement based on the following conditions: <br /> 1. The City agreed to a sum of$290,000 for the property_ <br /> 2. The City agreed to work with the County to adjust tie Property lines to make <br /> them consistent with what the city intended. <br /> 3.
