Motion carried with all members present voting aye except Mr. Obie voting no. IV. Request to exercise option at 510 River Avenue at treatment plant site . Don Allen, Public Works Department, noted that the Council had taken no tour of the area but he had prepared photos which were passed among Council members. He said the City had attempted to buy the property for many years and now the property was on the market, the city surrounded the property on three sides, it would be appro- priate to buy the property on the open market and therefore staff was not recommending condemnation procedures. He noted the asking price was high but reasonable considering the open-market value. He said the best use of the property would be industrial, although it was not so zoned at this time. He said a 30-day option for $19,000 had been signed and there would be an opportunity for the City to recoup some of the expenses in regard to the development of the metro-sewer area. Mr. Haws moved seconded by Mr. Hamel that the City ex- ercise the option in purchase of the property. Motion carried unanimously. V. Fluoride Issue--Ms. Smith noted two major concerns: 1) there was a need to do everything possible to get the City and school budgets passed June 28, and felt there could be a negative vote on the City budget if the fluoride issue were not put on that ballot; and 2) a concern for an obligation to the citizens who had worked so hard to petition that this issue be put on a ballot. - Ms. Smith moved seconded by Mr. Hamel to put the fluoride issue on the ballot June 28. 303 4/11/77 - 24
