The Stadium Fund Request from East Wenatchee Chamber of Commerce for $7,500 in the year 1990 for track resurfacing project (Eastmont School Dist.) was tabled until the next meeting as Marsha Henkle, representing the Chamber of Commerce was unable to attend the Mar. 6, meeting. Tery McKee made a motion to adopt the City of East Wenatchee Master Street Plan as all departments have had an opportunity to review the plan draft and make any changes they deemed important. Motion was seconded by Les Young and passed by vote of the Council. The Council authorized the City Engineers to prepare the final document and instructed the City Attorney to draft the ordinance required for adoption. Mayor McGraw suggested the Council think about when they would like to have their annual retreat and recommended they set a tentative date at the next meeting. Dawn Collings said she would make copies of the list of goals from the last retreat and provide copies for the Council. Mayor McGraw introduced Fran Glessner Council and asked that she speak to the Council concerning property South of the City Hall property. Mayor McGraw said there is no money involved as yet. Fran Glessner stated that she is a Broker with Johnson's Real Estate. Fran said she is very pro growth for the entire area and especially for the City of East Wenatchee. She said she has listed the property adjacent to the City property. She said with growth of the City, there will be a need of larger facilities. The property she said is just under an acre. She said the property is for sale and she would like the Council to ask those owners for a First Right of Refusal. She said that means, if someone comes in to the owners with an offer to purchase that property, then the City of East Wenatchee would have the option of saying, we wish to purchase the property and the City would have the right to purchase the property over anyone else who would want to purchase it, or the City could say no, they have decided to build elsewhere. She said it gives the City control over the property. Fran said she has not approached the owners about this and she does not even know if they would consider it. She said she does think it would be a good move for both parties involved and would give the City 2 1/4 acres to build a facility, parking and the City would still be able to keep the park. Mayor McGraw said he felt it was a good idea to consider, as it could make the City property more valuable in a trading situation if the City should decide to build elsewhere. Tery McKee said he had talked with Fran about the property before and he feels that First Right of Refusal gives the City a double option. Les Young said he felt it was a good idea if the owners were agreeable. As all Council persons were in favor of the First Right of Refusal, they directed Attorney Charles Zimmerman to draw up the document to present to the property owners. Mayor McGraw then asked that the Council go into executive session to discuss a pending litigation that would take approximately 20 minutes. Mayor McGraw called the meeting back into regular session and there being no further business, Dawn Collings made the motion that the meeting be adjourned, seconded by Tery McKee and pa sea by vote of the Council. ayor, Richyanrd /McGraw Peg Arthur, City Clerk BILLS SUBMITTED FOR PAYMENT MARCH 6, 1989 CURRENT EXPENSE 1.
