Status of Land Disposition Agreement
The Director summarized the status of the Land Disposition Agreement,
stating that following the receipt by the Agency of HUQ1s written opinion
regarding the Agreement. there had been two meetings held between HUD and
Agency representatives to discuss the points of exception noted by HUD.
He stated that the two principal objections raised by Hun were (1) the
inclusion of the P.O.? parcels in the Agreement and (2) the 6t-year
takedown schedule. He added that as a result of the second meeting
with Hun representatives. which was also attended by Mr. Gregg Anderson.
of Crescent Say Properties. the first point of exception was resolved.
inasmuch as HUD agreed to give the Agency a letter of approval contingent
upon the prior approval of a r~development plan for the P.O.? parcels,
after which any reference to said parcels would be removed from the
Agreement and set forth in a separate contract.

He also stated that the Developer was scheduled to meet with Agency
and HUD representatives during the week of March 15th to discuss his
acceptance or objection to the 2-year takedown schedule proposed by
HUD. Discussion followed, in which the Agency Members agreed by
consensus to immediately determine whether or not Crescent Bay
Properties will accept or reject HUD1s new terms and, further, if
Crescent Bay Properties feels it cannot comply, then the Agency will
appeal the issue to the Regional Offices of HUD.
The Chairman stated that, in his opinion, the language with
respect to retention of the local deposit by the Agency in Section
501 of the land Disposition Agreement was not clear and should be
redrafted. He suggested that the Agency request a letter of clari-
fication from Crescent Bay Properties on that clause.
There being no further business to be brought before the Members,
Mr. Schimmer moved, seconded by Mr. Connelly, that the meeting be
adjourned. The motion carried with a unanimous voice vote.
The meeting adjourned at 5:35 P.M.
