Acting upon your instructions I contacted Mr. Reid and Mr. Baker who own 54' and' 58' respectively along the alley. Mr'. Baker has priced his piece of property at $300.00 provided that the alley opening is successfully prosecuted. I - , Mr. Reid seeks'the sum of $2,000.00 basing his claim on the fact that the opening of the alley will prohibit him from developing an. additional lot on Tyler Street where he proposes to construct a residence. . At the Council's suggestion I have cvntacted the Eugene Water Board which has indicated that it would assist in the purchase of the necessary property to acquire the alley but I have received no commitment as to the extent of such participation. , Should the Council desire to proceed-, it would appear necessary to authorize a regular opening procedure involving the viewing and appraisal of the properties . .:in question.
