• <br />C <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Ginn, SECONDED <br />BY Commissioner Eggert, to move ahead with both the options <br />(FCT and FARBAR) and present them to Lost Tree Village, and <br />that any naming of the islands would be subject to Board of <br />County Commissioners' approval.* <br />County Attorney Vitunac recommended against having the hearing on the 3 0`h of June, <br />and suggested having it on a convenient day, 30 days plus from a reply from Lost Tree <br />Village that they are willing to sell under those circumstances, if they are. <br />There was brief discussion about the date and there was consensus that all five <br />Commissioners should be present. <br />Commissioner Adams could not support the option agreement with the requirement <br />about the naming of the islands, Commissioners.Eggert and Ginn both agreed that the naming <br />requirement (by Lost Tree Village) be removed and made part of the motion. * <br />County Attorney Vitunac counseled that if this is a counter-offer, they can take out <br />anything they did not like. <br />price. <br />If the Board was sending an offer back, Commissioner Adams wanted to talk about <br />Commissioner Eggert thought the Board had no chance of seeing a lower price for the <br />islands. If they wanted to purchase the islands, they needed to pay the price. <br />Vice Chairman Macht thought that while the general public favored purchasing the <br />islands, they did not want to purchase them at a high price. <br />Commissioner Ginn thought there had been a lot of damage done through speech and <br />that no action were taken today, the islands would be lost to them forever. <br />County Attorney Vitunac clarified that what is on the agenda are two options which <br />are being withdrawn by the seller if the condemnation resolution is not adopted. The <br />discussion now is not the execution of options, but a counteroffer to Lost Tree and they <br />would have to take some action to validate the option. They may not accept the counteroffer; <br />it may be a dead issue. But the only way to keep it alive, if they want to keep it alive, is to <br />make a counteroffer with the options before them minus the eminent domain issue. They <br />could change anything they wanted. He suggested they take the two separately, since the <br />FCT takes 4 votes to approve and the FARBAR takes 3 votes to approve. <br />May 26, 1998 <br />45 <br />&�I-s .,Ute "1Gctj �` <br />r r �, <br />
