Mayor Keller again clarified process in that Council was approving the ~ Whiteaker Refinement Plan, with amendments as noted, and would adopt 'II' the resolution of the refined Plan at a later meeting. Mr. Porter then reminded Council of accepting the recommendation for correction relating to site review (specifically itemized on page 12 of minutes), and to change implementation priorities that would make site review on the East Skinner's Butte area the first area of concern. Mr. Hamel and Mr. Bradley concurred those two items be included in the main motion. Vote was taken on the main motion which carried with all Councilors present voting aye, except Mr. Obie voting no. B. Foreclosure On Assessments Manager said the ordinance established as a procedure for holding foreclosure sales. The present Charter does not provide for such in prescribed detail. Provisions provide that statutory procedure is intended as a means of selling property for delinquent liens and assessments. The ordinance provides for the finance officer to establish a minimum price for which property would be sold~ which differs from State statutes which limit price to amount of delinquent lien or assessment in associated costs. Assessments often do not equal the market value and would, therefore, provide a windfall for the developer who buys the property. It was felt the City should benefit from the rise in prices. The ordinance also provides more assurance that anyone who purchases property is aware of any other ~ City liens existing on property which may not be included in the . foreclosure. The owner has two years to redeem it. Public hearing was held with no testimony presented.
