7 Regular Meeting June 25, 1984 Page 7 Mayor Craddock introduced for discussion the proposed sale of Urban Renewal Property. City Attorney Hankins stated that this was a follow up to the earlier report. He said that the City never sold any land that we did not own. He reviewed all the recent Urban Renewal Sales transactions. There is one piece of land that the Council has approved and Mayor Craddock has signed the deed, but we have not turned the deed over to Mr. Lee Swift, but he still wants it. The land in question needs to remain some public use by requirements by both the Urban Renewal Plan and Master Plan. Tract A, B & C of Farm Lot 11 that was sold to Lee Swift, has the same problem that both the Urban Renewal Plan and the Master Plan and even the Zoning call for it to remain in public use. Block 39, Section 2, Victory Gardens, II has an incompatible Urban Renewal Land Use and Master Plan Land Use requirement. The Urban Renewal Land Use call for it to be Commerical, and the Master Plan Land Use calls for it to be Low Density Residential. Mr. Hankins stated that the Tract sold to Lucy Badillo also has an incompatiblE Urban Renewal Land Use and Master Plan Land Use. The Urban Renewal Land Use calls for Multi-Family and the Master Plan Land Use calls for Low Density. The Last Tract that has problems was sold to Bill Boyd. The Urban Renewal Land Use call for it to be Mixed Useage and the Master Plan calls for Low Density Residential. Every other piece of land sold is compatible. City Attorney Hankins suggested that the staff notify the owners and tell them about the problem. Mr. Farr moved that the Council adjourn into Executive Session pursuant to Article 6252-17, §2(g) and §2 (e), V.A.C.S., to discuss personnel and contemplated litigation and matters where the duty of a public body's counsel to his client pursuant to the Code of Professional Responsibility clearly conflicts with this Article, and Mr. Coddington seconded the motion, which passed unanimously (10:10 p.m.). Mr. Farr moved the Council convene at 11:27 p.m. and Mr. Guerra seconded the motion, which passed unanimously. The meeting adjourned at 1l:28~ a ~tion made by Mr. Guerra and seconded by Mr. Brown.
