This was the culmination of <br />several years of negotiations with the Town Tower dating back as <br />early as 1978. The two conditions of the purchase, being the <br />rezoning of the property to "commercial" and the vacation of <br />portions of two alleys adjoining the property, have been met. <br />In accordance with Paragraph 3 of the Purchase Agreement (a copy <br />,� of which is enclosed), the city must furnish title insur <br />an.

The Michigan -Marion Street Joint <br />Venture presently leases one of the parcels to be sold to Town Tower. <br />The 90 days' notice could not have been given at the time of execution <br />of the Purchase Agreement because the vacation and rezoning pro- <br />ceedings which are a condition of the agreement were just concluded. <br />6 Would you please prepare whatever notice will be required to advise <br />the Michigan -Marion Street Joint Venture of our intent t <br />the lease. o terminate <br />Would you please prepare the necessary Warr <br />anty <br />J_�I real estate to the Town Tower Motel Corporation andd conveying the <br />executed by the Mayor and City Clerk.
