0 <br />1 The Executive Director said the original architects on the <br />2 project, Montgomery and Tushie, had put a $95,000 lien on the <br />3 Saliterman property when Mr. Arkell had failed to pay them for <br />4 their services. Mr. Soth indicated he had told the architects he <br />5 thought the chances that action would be considered to be legal <br />6 to be "very, very slim". <br />7 He also recommended that, although Mr. Arkell had told City <br />8 officials he knew he would be able to settle with them for much <br />9 less, lien removal should only be negotiated as part of a total <br />10 settlement package with the Arkand Partnership. The Attorney <br />11 indicated agreement with Commissioner Ranallo's suggestion that <br />12 the H.R.A. not pursue a settlement with Mr. Arkell until further <br />13 information related to Gaughan's activities is available. <br />14 In reference to Mr. Arkell's assumption that the Gaughan Company <br />15 was "just stalling", Mr. Childs indicated he knew the developers <br />16 were making a real effort to get financing for the project since <br />17 they were talking to several different lenders at this time. <br />18 Attorney Perceives Lang/Nelson Still Interested in Doing the <br />19 Project <br />20 The firm's finance officer had called him that day, Mr. Soth <br />4921 reported, saying Mr. Krier had tried to set up a meeting with him <br />22 right after the last H.R.A. meeting. Mr. Soth said he had told <br />23 Paul Brewer the H.R.A. was talking to other developers because <br />24 Gaughan had not yet signed an agreement with them to do the <br />25 project. The LaNel Financial Group President had responded by <br />26 indicating Lang/Nelson would be getting back to the H.R.A. soon. <br />27 ADJOURNMENT <br />28 Motion by Ranallo, seconded by Enrooth to adjourn the meeting <br />29 at 11:01 P.M. <br />30 Motion carried unanimously. <br />31 Respectfully submitted, <br />32 Helen Crowe, Secretary <br />33 :cjk <br />0 <br />2 <br />
