RESOLUTION A RESOLUTION OF THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTH

INDEFINITELY ITS PLAN TO GIVE AWAY THE BUILDING LOCATED AT
622 NORTH MICHIGAN STREET TO REAL SERVICES, INC.
A public hearing was held on the resolution. Council Member Voorde indicated that
this resolution focuses on the intended giveaway of City -owned property to REAL services.
He indicated this property was purchased by the City nearly a decade ago for an undervalued
price of $132,000. He indicated that the subsequent one dollar a year lease to REAL
Services, Inc. has evidenced a continuing commitment to the welfare of our senior
citizens. He indicated this commitment does not need to be reaffirmed does not need
to be reaffirmed by giving away the property to REAL Services. He indicated this
resolution suggests a continuation of the lease for a dollar a year for as long as
REAL Services is the designated agency providing for the needs of the elderly, or the
property suits the needs of the agency. He indicated this resolution does not question
the work REAL Services has done for this community. He indicated there was no financial
advantage to the City in giving away this building. Since REAL Services is responsible
for operation, maintenance and insurance on the building. He indicated that the
Board of Works can proceed with this sale without the approval of the Council. He
indicated that the City should conduct an inventory of all property and work with the
Council to develop some long - termed policies regarding its use. Council Member Puzzello
asked if there was a reversionary clause. Carolyn Pfotenhauer, City Attorney's office,
indicated the deed would contain a reversionary clause. Council Member Braboy indicated
that clause would not affect the selling of the building. Council Member Voorde
indicated that it seems the Council was having problems accepting the fact that REAL
Services may be able to sell the building after the City has given it to them. He
indicated that the purpose of this resolution was to maintain control of the building.
Council Member Braboy asked how much money REAL Services has put into the building.
Mayor Parent indicated he did not know how much money they have put into the building,
but it was substantial. He indicated the City bought the building with Federal funds
for the benefit of the older adults in the Community. He indicated it was not for
the City to acquire a building for investment, it was for the older adults. He indicated
that in the future, the City could need money and sell the building taking it away
from the older adults. He indicated the City made a commitment that the building was
for older adults in the community. Council Member Taylor made a motion to defeat
