THE COMMISSION NOW FINDS THAT: <br />1. The hereinabove described Property is not suitable for commercial leasing because <br />it would require the Commission to make a significant financial investment in the <br />Property and such use would be inconsistent with the Commission's plan for <br />redevelopment of the Property. <br />2. It is unnecessary to -obtain appraisals as to the rental value of the Property because <br />the Property is not suitable for commercial tenancy in its current condition. <br />3.
