However, I did receive an offer on 5/ 13/ 2010 - 82-  Page 2 of 3 Godwin from American Title to release one of its properties that it insured -Lot 1, Grand Oaks, for 5000. 00. The release is for a partial release of this property only and acknowledges that this is only partial payment of the lien. I have been working with Mr. Mearns and Toni on this. Can you advise Mr. Mearns and if acceptable ( I recommend it) ask Council if they approve? I have no response from the other title company and am ready to proceed with foreclosures on the other lots if the City advises. We will need to meet on that before I do. Please advise. Thanks.

In my opinion, it is outside of the mitigation procedures and should proceed as Joe is proposing. Toni L.

I am not overly familiar with this case and therefore may be out of line, I think it that we should be providing these requests with a copy of the mitigation procedure ordinance ( Ord # 1793).
