The Agency dis- cussed the matter of enlarging the survey area at length, and Dr. Miller moved that the recom- mendation be sent to the City Council; the motion was seconded by Member Grace. OWN Mr. DeMirjyn registered disagreement to adding additional property under the redevelopment, as he felt the taxes of additional property are needed for the schools and the County rather Expansion than for the redevelopment. Mr. DeMirjyn added Redevelop- that he believed the school tax override measure ment Area proposed for early 1976 is due partially to the redevelopment property being removed from the schools ' income, Mr. Cummings replied that he believed the tax override would come whether the property were under redevelopment or not. Mr. Knudsen expressed concern that properties are being added to the redevelopment area and that the original development is not "carrying itself" as he expected it would when he first considered the redevelopment.
