The City could bid the project and assess individual lots or the city and developer could each pay for a portion of the improvements. William Reiser asked why the city should become involved. Thomas Anderson stated that the city participated in the Tower Dr. project in the Grier Ind- ustrial Park and in this development there are several taox forfeit lots that will be put back on the tax rolls; Also Maple St. would be greatly improved which would benefit the property to the north.
