Miller, Charlotte Miller, Rolland W, Moore, Jr., Sally Moore, ,” and Helen B. Harris, Councilman Roth felt an RDA went with the project and the land. Council- man Riordan pointed out the plans cannot be changed; that any changes must again a o through the allocation g g g process. Councilman Gorman stated Council had acted in good faith in December but that, in the future, proof of ownership should be required. Attorney Holmes stated the ordinance does not contemplate creating anything like a security interest or an interest ' in property that is severable from the property, and that, in his opinion, ",4 r, RDAs are based solely on a proposed project on a proposed piece of land; r 1 that if the land and project is sold or transferred, the allocation can 4i move with the land if the project and land is substantially the same. �N Ingrid Mack addressed Council stating that Dr. Welch did not have title of g'�l �t «- the property when he requested the allocation transfer.

Mrs. Mack spoke briefly again informing Council she was also suing this third party on the same basis. Stating he had uneasy feelings, Councilman Roth moved to do nothing further until Dr. Welch and Mrs. Hall, et all, came forward with proof of owner- ship on the days in question, and then Council would take appropriate action. eft' Motion seconded by Councilman Gorman. I Mrs. Hall questioned the necessity of involving Dr. Welch since she is now the new owner. Councilman Roth explained he wanted clarification; that if Dr. Welch did not own the property on December 15, then he felt the action taken at that meeting was null and void. Councilman Gorman extensively questioned Mrs. Hall if she absolutely understood that if the ! 1\s9i; allocation transfer was granted, there could not be any changes in the a�= f plans. She replied the plot plans were a matter of public record, and in answer to the questions if she owned or had control of the project plans, � she stated she understood it was just a service, that no one owns those j plans, and that she could buy it. She stated several times she would abide by the original plans as approved. � Councilman Roth's motion then carried by unanimous vote of the Council. �) i } 141 ; OTHER PIANNING ITEMS FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION (Continued) +t 2.
