MAY 16 19$4 <br />BOOK 57 FACE 50 <br />The Board continued to discuss our lien and various <br />amounts that could be bid, and Commissioner Wodtke noted <br />that we would have to bid over $43,000 before it would cost <br />us more than $28,000. <br />Attorney Paull brought up the fact if the County did <br />bid the property in, we would have to come up with the cash <br />in a very short period of time. He further noted that we <br />have a default judgment and the appeal time has not run; so, <br />it is conceivable that after that sale, there could be <br />further litigation. <br />It was noted that there is a subdivision to the east of <br />this property and another salvage yard immediately on the <br />other side. <br />Commissioner Bird felt that a junk yard is a <br />moneymaking machine, and he believed someone very likely <br />would be interested in it. <br />THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION on the <br />Motion not to bid. Commissioner Lyons voted <br />in favor, with Commissioners Bird, Wodtke and <br />Chairman Scurlock voting in opposition. The <br />Motion failed 3 to 1. <br />Administrator Wright suggested that if the Board <br />desired, they could authorize staff to bid not to exceed the <br />assessed value. An amount roughly in the area of $43,000 <br />was discussed. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Wodtke, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Bird, Commissioner Lyons voting <br />in opposition, the Board by a 3 to 1 vote <br />authorized staff to attend the sale and partici- <br />pate in the bidding with discretion, not to exceed <br />the assessed value. <br />50 <br />
