e
appurtenances and improvements by exercise

amount of $170,500.00, seconded by Alderman Jones, the vote was:
Aye: Aldermen Jones, Super, Legaazd, Beazd, Looker and Dazata.
Motion carries.
City Attorney comments John said this is a purchase by the City in lieu of eminent domain and the
reason eminent domain is discussed in the Ordinance is it provides a tax
benefit to the landowner without any negative impact with the City. The City
must have this land for public improvement, so if the City had not been able to
reach a negotiated purchase with the landowner, the City would have had to
condemn the property and this was a negotiated purchase pursuant to the
City's power of eminent domain. The City performed an appraisal done by an
MAI appraiser and that full report was given to the landowner prior to the
negotiations, so he was awaze of what the appraiser said, and the purchase price in
the ordinance is in excess of that appraised amount by a small factor and the
landowner volunteered to sell the land to the City based on that price, which he
thought was a fair price.

City Attorney Comments John said the audit report that was previously discussed in closed session
on some of the issues, that report is now final, and for open session discussion.
It is appropriate to say that this Boazd has addressed all of the issues raised in that
report and no one on this Boazd had any knowledge of the issues in the report or
was any way responsible, and appreciates the Boazd's commitment to solve the
problems before the City has a another audit.
John said it had been a distinct pleasure to work for this Board and said there has
been tremendous progress.
Alderman's comment Alderman Looker asked if all the checking accounts had been combined into one
account and David said "No," the new Finance Officer does not start until April
13m. David said she is going to need some time to go through all this and he also
said the new Finance Officer had dealt with "Positive Pay".
Alderman Looker asked about contracts obtained and not obtaining Boazd
approval of contracts.
City Attorney comments John said the Boazd adopted a Purchasing Policy and since the policy has been
adopted, it has been followed. The Mo. State law is that on contracts not approved
by Ordinance by the Boazd, aze not enforceable, but Mo. State law does not allow
recovery of those funds from people who got them.
Alderman Looker asked if the person signing the contract could at least be made
financially responsible and John said, with the Purchasing Ordinance in
place, they could be held responsible, not only financially, but possibly criminally
responsible.
Alderman Legaard asked if her name had been removed from all checking
accounts and the bank lock box. David replied the City Clerk had these changed.
The City Clerk said she did not know about the lock box, but would investigate.
