<br />e <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />potential building sites, privately owned, in this block. The site <br />committee attempted to contact the owners for possible purchase of <br />these properties. One was successful (lot 15-16) and construction <br />has been started. Owner of the other properties cannot be found. <br />The City has offered property (lots 28-32) in Block 104 as a <br />new site. Search of tax records show lots 26-27 owned by a lady in <br />California and the City owns lots 23-25. Contact has been made on <br />lots 26-27 and they are available. If 23-25 can be made available <br />by the City, this would give us five contiguous sites. <br />It should be noted that to date, our program has added over <br />half million dollars to the local tax rolls. The City has waived <br />permit fees and provided other assistance. It is requested that <br />Council continue this joint venture with the La Porte HFH group in <br />developing this area by making the property available as reasonable <br />as possible. The property would return to the tax rolls as <br />construction is completed on each site. HFH is tax exempt for <br />three years. <br />Should you need additional information or if we should have a <br />member present at council meeting, please advise. <br /> <br />lards, <br />~d~ <br />Jim Counts, <br />Site Selection <br />
