Co~c~ ~/2~,/78 Page 5 He said he abstained from the vote because he has some property in that area, although he did not buy property from Mr. Klemish, and if there is any legal action, he felt it was in the best interest of the City that he didn't vote. He said he has no problem with putting it on the Agenda to talk about it, but it is wrong to direot the staff to do something that is illegal. Councilman Gamec said that something is wrong if Ed Klemish's ideas can~ be looked at in a businesslike way. He said he didn't think the Council members should start to question each other. Mr. Klemish was present and asked the people present who had signed the letter if they know what they have done and if they understood all of the wording in it. He asked if they would swear to it in court. Mr. Klemish said that he has put up with enough of this and if the names are not withdrawn and the subject dropped, he is filing suit with those~ people who do not withdraw their names. He said he is also filing suit~~he City and with Mayor Cox and Councilman Reimann if they do not resign from their positions. He said Mr. Reimann directing people on his own is very unlawful. Mr. Bob Gfroerer, 16810 Quicksilver Street, was present and said that there is a correction he wished to make to the letter. He said it is not true as stated in the letter that the thirty-day clean up period last year, 1977, was not given to Ed Klemish. He also said that one person asked to be withdrawn from the letter and that person is ~rs. Danan. Mr. Ofroerer said he has been here many times ar~ it still took 1-1/2 hours tonight to say he is not going to do it. ~e said he has been personally threatened that a 3.2 beer joint was going to be built next to him and that he will never see the deed to his land. Dave Anderson, a neighbor, was present and said he feels he is closer to some of these people than Mr. Klemish and said he runs a service business and has equipment in his yard and no one has ever complained about him. Mrs. Pat Carroll, 5953 169th Lane, was present and said the whole basic problem is out of perspective. She said all they ask is that he just clean it up. Bob Nix, 16195 Sodium, lives right next to Mr. Ktemish and said is problem is with the building out in the swamp and is concerned that this area, too, will become unsightly when Mr. Klemish mdves everything to it.

Gfroerer told the Council that any time he has come to a Council meeting he has been told that he will see this mess cleaned up and now he S.aid now he will have a suit against him because he came to the Council.
