NOTIONS Councilman Ackerly moved, seconded by Councilwoman Bailie, to use the current appraisal, re -bid A, B & C with the stipulation that release clauses by lot be given based on some equitable number. Councilman Wise said Mr. Brown was supposed to meet with Administration and update hie letter as to one tract or 3 separate bids. Land Manager Labahn replied he had nothing in writing, Mr. Brown was waiting for receipt of appraisal before proceeding further. Atty. Rogers said he had a verbatim of the proceedings. The initial offer as written was not what came out of the meeting. During the initial discueeLon, Mr. Brown would have off set bid. At the end of the meeting he asked for reserve to revise the offer. That constitutes a new offer, Council has the option to do as they see fit. MOTION, Amendments Councilman Wise moved, seconded by Councilman Ackerly, to specify each tract as an entity and have a new bid on each entity a A, B & C. PUBLIC COMMENTS a. Dave Brown. It was decided the offer was for all 3 parcels as one offer. The only thing he had to go back to Mr. Labahn was whether he wanted to continue negotiations with City Manager Brighton on the existing conditions without release clause or go ahead and have the City accept $500 for a new appraisal contingent on j having a release clause in the new bid. Because he was I initiating he had the right of first refusal. Mayor Wagoner said Council wanted to re -bid because his proposal requesting release would have to be treated the same as the previous proponers. The only thing Mr. Brown had was an old appraisal. Council rejected it because he was requesting releases and Council had rejected the others who requested releases. Mr. grown noted, he had initiated the sale with $500, the City accepted by going out for an appraisal. Atty. Rogers KE_NAI CITY COUNCIL FEBRUARY 20, 1985 Page 6 said the tranneript shows he requested all 3 parcels; r but he also requesated to meet with Administration the next day. There were many changes in his proposal, none were reduced to writing as required by law. Mr. Brown noted it is a matter of public record. At the end of the meeting he asked Council to instruct Mr. Labahn not to advertise till he had a chance to review what was proposed. He called Mr. Labahn the next day and told him to go ahead with advertising. Mayor Wagoner said he had asked Mr. Brown to come in the next day and clarify in writing. Mr. Brown replied, Council wanted a negotiated sale, not to throw out his bid. He spoke to Mr. Labahn right after the meeting and was told he would not have to meet face to face, just call and tell him if he wanted to continue. He did that. It woo not said at the meeting that it was to be in writing, He asked Council to recess so he could put it in writing at this time. He thought if it was said in a public meeting, it was official. Councilman Measles coked, what is normal practice if someone has more than one offer to purchase - one for any offer or one for each offer? Mr. Labahn replied, a good faith deposit for each piece offered. Councilman Measles noted, if the City accepted one good faith offer, it was one -__ offer for all 3. b, Ed Lowry, Kenai.

Mr. Lowry noted all real estate offers have to be ir+ writing or they are not valid - that is State law, He ,Informed Council that he presented an offer within a few days after the meeting. Mr. Brown said Lhere is a written offer from him, the verbal offer is whether it was all 3 or 1. He added, all those preoent at the meeting knew what was said.
