Mr. Schlitt noted that he lost over two months while all <br />this was going on and wondered if there would be any restitution <br />to him for the lost time as well as the money he has lost. <br />Commissioner Scurlock asked if we have any legal basis to <br />authorize some compensation for Mr. Schlitt, and Attorney Vitunac <br />advised that he has a right to temporary taking damages for <br />whatever interests costs we have made him incur, or possible <br />additional building costs in the interim. <br />Commissioner Bird asked if Mr. Schlitt had a figure in mind <br />as to what it may have cost him, and Mr. Schlitt felt he should <br />be compensated for the extra interest he has to pay and also for <br />a couple months' rent, which is $400 a month. <br />Attorney Vitunac informed the Board that we were ready to <br />buy the lot on the day in question, but Mr. Schlitt couldn't <br />produce good title because of some mortgage complications and the <br />closing fell through. Actually for the last 3 weeks or so, the <br />delay is on his part. <br />After further explanation, Commissioner Scurlock felt we are <br />_talking about a month or so and asked if the Board agreed $800 <br />would be a reasonable amount. That was generally agreed. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by Com- <br />missioner Wheeler, the Board unanimously agreed to <br />compensate Christopher Schlitt for a temporary "taking" <br />in the total amount of $800 and approved Alternative 2 <br />as recommended by staff. <br />Mr. Schlitt inquired if his building permits will still be <br />in effect, and Administrator Chandler advised he will have to go <br />back to the Building Department, but he did not feel there would <br />be any hold up or delay on the permits. <br />The Board directed the Administrator to assist Mr. Schlitt <br />in this process. <br />MAR 131990 <br />55 <br />
