At the last Planning Board meeting approval was recommended for
permit to use frame construction with aluminum siding on the second story of
a new home at 950 N. E. 95th Street, in view of the frame homes in the neighbor-
hood. After reviewing the plans, Mr. Saxon moved that the Planning Board
decision be upheld concerning the home of Mr. Starr Horton, 950 N. E. 95th
St. Motion was seconded by Mr. Rudnick who added that this type construction
is in keeping with this area but that he would object to frame construction in an
area that is completely masonry construction. The motion was then passed by
a 3/1 vote with Mr. Claussen dissenting.
In regard to the proposal to purchase the five acres north of the
Country Club, the Village Manager reported that after talking with Mr. Hawkins

the 6th year payment would be $19, 000. 00 and each year thereafter $450. 00
less, with a total of $339, 500. 00. After discussion, Mr. Claussen moved
that the Village Manager be instructed to prepare a proper resolution setting
forth the history of this property and the relationship between the Village and
Bessemer Properties over the years and express our willingness to acquire
this land at a price that is reasonable and realistic, offering them $180, 000. 00
for the property with some type of mortgage that would be of a tax benefit to
them. Motion was seconded by Mr. Miller and passed unanimously.

the Police Station and the following bids were received:
HILL YORK $2150. 00 - 4 h.p.
BAY AIR CONDITIONING 2350. 00 - 5 ton

award to the firm he thinks will do the best job. Motion died for lack of a second.
After discussing the advisability of installing window units, Mr. Saxon moved
that the Village Manager be authorized to air condition the Police Dept. with
window units. Motion was seconded by Mr. Claussen but finally withdrawn
and the Village Manager was instructed to look into air conditioning for the
Police Dept. and make another recommendation to the Council.
After a review of the current bills, Mr. Rudnick moved they be
approved. Motion was seconded by Mr. Saxon and passed unanimously.
