Dear Mrs. Mullikin:
Reference is made to item 19. of the minutes of the city
commission of March 18 , 1974, regarding my earlier letter dated
March 8, 1974, wherein I indicated to the commission that the
second resolution (to which I assigned the no. , 28. 8) adopted on
February 5 , 1973, had not been filed.
At the meeting of March 18 , 1974, the city commission
adopted a resolution directing that the second resolution be
officially filed.
I enclose herewith your copy of the resolution adopted on
March 18 , 1974 (to which I have assigned the no. , 54) and I ask
that you file same in your official set of resolutions.
The enclosed resolution will clear up any questions which
may possibly arise in later years (and I doubt that any questions
will arise) regarding the sale of the old bank building property.
Sincerely yours, ..

Dear Mr. Hampton and Mrs. Mullikin:
{ With respect to the sale of any public lands, the charter !`
requires the city commission to adopt a resolution declaring the j}
' lands as being no longer needed for public purposes and further
1 declaring the lands to be surplus.
Further, according to the charter, the lands may then be I)
offered for sale to the Public_ at any time not less than 30 days, I�
nor more than 60 days, after the adoption of the resolution.
l
This letter pertains to the sale of the property commonly !�
referred to as the old bank building. r
At the meeting of the city commission on December 18, 1972, !�
(item 22. on the minutes) a resolution was adopted to sell the old I
bank building with the date of sale to be February 5, 1973, (which
said date of sale would have been a date not less than 30 days, nor
more than 60 days, after the adoption of the resolution) . I!I.
As of December 18, 1972, the title was subject to a deed
restriction running until 1976 and providing that the Property could Ij
be used for public or municipal purposes only.
I�.
In order to proceed with the sale, it was necessary that I
I�
present the matter to the Board of Directors of The Dania Ban}: to [[�
obtain a consent on the part of the bank to release the restriction.
As you may know, the bank had earlier sold the property to the city
in 1966, at a rather nominal price on the premise that the city would
use the property for Public P purposes for at least ten years.

.. Mr. Woodward M. Hampton
Mrs. Wanda Mullikin Page Two March 8, 1974
We delayed advertising for the sale on February 5, 1973,
until we could make absolutely certain that the bank would give the
necessary release. Finally, by letter dated January 31, 1973, the .
bank did deliver the release to us and this allowed the city to con-
tinue with its plan to sell the property.
Unfortunately, by the time we had received the release,- it ,
was impossible to comply with the resolution adopted on December 18,
1972, (which was resolution number 27) so as to have the sale on
February 5, 1973.
At the meeting of February 5, 1973, 1 did report the matter
to the city commission and suggested the adoption of a new resolu-
tion providing for a sale on March 19, 1973.
At the meeting of February 5, 1973, the city commission did
adopt a new resolution authorizing the sale date of March 19, 1973,
(see item 2. under the city attorney's report on the minutes of
February 5, 1973) .
Gilbert ❑. Berken.was the successful bidder on March 19, 1973,
by submitting a bid for $G8,000.00. on behalf of the city, we closed
the transaction with Doctor Berken.
I
In making a review and correlation of our files with those of
the city, we note that Mr. Clay does show the first. resolution (reso-
lution 27, adopted on December 18, 1972) but that he fails to show
the inclusion of the later resolution authorized and adopted on
yy February 5, 1973.
q
I In order that the title to the property may he absolutely
1 clear, one of the enclosures hereto is a copy of the February 5,
1973 resolution to which I have assigned the number, 28.8,
i
I request that Mrs. Mullikin place resolution 28.8 in. her
resolution file.
Further, because Mr. Clay is not available at this time to j
{ sign the resolution, I will 'ask the city commission on March 18, 1974, i
to adopt a further resolution confirming resolution 28.8. .
Please place the matter on the agenda.
For the information for all concerned, I enclose the following:
I
. (1) Copy of resolution number 27 (the pink copy) _
adopted on December 18, 1972;
a
- (2) Photocopy of letter dated January 31, 1973,
from The Dania Hank (together with a copy of 4
i the enclosure thereto) ; and
I E
(3) Copy of suggested resolution 28.8. 9
I am taking the liberty of sending a copy of this letter to
each commissioner so that he will be informed.
Yours very truly,
Clarke
