The following letter was presented by Mr. Ted Herron, Executive ,Sale of Director of the Housing Authority: Parcel C-2 & C-3 ! Dear Mayor Christy: It is the intention of the Housing Authority of the City of lJefferson to accept the redevelopment contract proposal of Mozark Enterprises , Inc . to purchase and redevelop Parcel C-3 in the ( Campus View Urban Renewal Project. , The area involved is shown on the enclosed sketch map and the pre- Iliminary layout of buildings is shown on the enclosed architect 's !, sketch. We are also enclosing a copy of the resultant news item 11which fairly describes Mozark s proposal. I proposal as submitted meets all the requirements of the Urban Renewal Plan as accepted by the City Council after public hearing. I land use and zoning are correct as proposed. IiMozark Enterprises also intends to submit a proposal to purchase , and develop Parcel C-2 . The development here would expand the 1C-3 plan, and probably place the proposed reStaUri►lIt on C-2 lallowing more area parking on C-3 . Would YOU PICaSC accept this as our 30 day notice that the Board intends to include C-2 in tile development contract. This action will, savc us 30 days and permit ,Mozark to proceed with more definite planning. liThis approval of C-2 for Mozark could be qualified by stating that Ithe Council accepts the notification subject to final approval ;iby the Board of Conwiissioncra of the Housing Authority. i'Although this notification is required by state law its purpose is ; to assure that the Authority has not deviated from the accepted ! Plan for the project. In all such-notices to date we have ( followed the Plan. Should we ever be forced to deviate, we will ! explain why and seek Council approval. Should such a change in Inature it would require a public hearing. Personally, I am well pleased to see a local group develop this area. I first approached one of the stockholders about three imonths ago So, you can see that they proceeded rapidly. The first local group with which we worked almost a year could not fin_ : ; ally reach agreement among themselves . I 'Perhaps I should tell you that the Board elected to sell all 11property in Campus View at "fixed" prices . That is , after having litwo appraisals made, the Board set a price for the land. Then, after the URA had approved the prices they were published. This l '!was done back in 1964. This method permits the Board to accept ! the development it considers best for the project rather than , simply selling to the developer willing to pay the most for the Iland. For example, one prospective developer for C-3 proposed structures to coo $250,000 as opposed to Mozark' s proposal at which incidentally may e increased. Very truly yours , Ted J. Herron, Executive Director Regular Council Meeting, January 3, 1966 109- .Mr. Willcoxon moved to accept the letter as the 30 day notice. The ;. motion passed.
