He noted there are two changes, a $1,000 <br />reinstatement fee to cover legal costs and to change the timing from December 20, 2012, to <br />January 11, 2013, because only two meetings are scheduled within that time frame. <br />Motion by Commissioner Ramsey, seconded by Commissioner Tossey, to approve the amended <br />and reinstated purchase agreement with West Real Estate for the purchase of Lot 5, Block 1, <br />COR TWO, subject to review and approval by HRA legal counsel. <br />Motion carried.

Development Manager <br />Lazan stated the rate will be the same as in the general contract and stay the same for next year. <br />City Administrator Ulrich stated the schedule of rates is part of the development contract and if it <br />goes over this amount, Development Manager Lazan will need to come back for HRA approval. <br />Motion carried.
