Mr. Locher reported on the status of the buildings on the Menkveld property on High- way #8 just North of 77th Street. He had discussed this with an Attorney this evening and she had asked for a 45 day extension on the requests of the City for the removal of those buildings. The history of this matter was discussed by the Council and Mr. Locher. Mr. McLean moved to instruct Mr. Locher to file the long form complaint against this property for the removal of the buildings. Seconded by Mr. Kulaszewicz. Motion car- ried unanimously. The next item on the agenda was the consideration of financing for the General Ob- ligation Bonds which Mr. Andrew Merry of Juran & Moody presented. This is for the amount of $200,000.00 and will be used in connection with the upgrading of Andall Street and the installation of water, sewer, storm sewers, streets, curbs and gutters on Lantern Circle and Lantern Lane. These projects were 100% petitioned by the property owners thereby allowing the City to sell without the necessity of holding public hearings. Mr. Merry explained the terms by which Juran & Moody would purchase these bonds, the interest and the payment schedule. Since this cost cannot be put on the assessment rolls until the year 1981, with the first payment being received in 1982, the first principal payment is not due until December 1982.
