Ilk - 2 - When• she suggested the City could buy the land from her to build more ,townhomes,,. Mrs. Dorumsgard was told the economics for that or for building single family homes next to her just weren't there. Her suggestion that Mr. Childs hadn't been fair. or honest to her were sharply contested and the Mayor told Mrs. Dorumsgard .the only y reason the City had gotten involved in the project at all had been- because of .the constant complaints over the last 14 years from her and her neighbors. about the types of activities on the Walbon properties. The Walbon won't just go away, Mayor Sundland told her and when she asked just what she would be looking at from her' front window, he said she would probably see the exterior of the .townhomes which would not be much different in appearance from the homes in that area, whose owners had all agreed they could live better with this project than to continue with the noise and appearance of the Walbon property. If that had not been the case, the City would not be considering the next steps in the process of redevelop- ing that problem, property. Mrs. Dorumsgard left the meeting after the following action was taken: Motion by Commissioner Ranallo and seconded by Secretary/Treasurer Marks to take the steps necessary to make a final decision on the redevelopment of the Walbon Property for a 32-unit townhome project by authorizing land, building and reloca- tion appraisals of the subject property and to authorize staff to negotiate an agreement with Dick Krier for consulting services on the project. Motion carried unanimously. Motion by Commissioner Ranallo and seconded by Vice. Chair Enrooth to adjourn the Housing and Redevelopment Authority meeting at 9:15 p.m. Motion carried unanimously. t Respectfully .submitted, Helen Crowe, Secretary 4 s e r F E •f
