Water? Is the water table contaminated there? No water?
Septic: Wouldn't a town hall and sheriff substation only need a 'limited septic capacity'? Maybe there are some 'green' advances that could be incorporated? Perhaps capturing and reusing rainwater, etc. Much like the new schools are using.

Does that Agapion guy still own this shopping center? Seems I read in the NW Observer at one point that he did..... Based on his reputation (and he's proved it with this property) he doesn't do much to maintain or keep up his properties.

| I have talked to a health inspector and there is no water contaminated. There is enough room on site to repair the septic. The problem is the owner....He does not want to sell......The property has his trademark look......

Maybe we could trade him for our 90 acre park in Armfield!

| A friend of mine from Detroit has looked at this property and the property next to it. He would like to develop or invest into something positive for Summerfield. He has initiated talks through a 3rd party with ARCO Realty (Bill Agapion). I have not heard from him in a couple weeks so I don't know the latest news. He has asked me to keep my ear out for Info on the property.

| It seems like this guy understands the demand for the proprety and sees the property values going ^ to $Texas in SF. I am not surprised that he is holding out. He probably stands to make a pretty penny in the future. I dont see any reason for him to settle for less at this time. SF is just beginning to take off and if the water situation ever gets taken care of, it will be even better for his interests. In the meantime, if no one buys, he will rent it out if possible but is only investing what he has to in order to keep the bldg usable. If I were him, I would not sell either. I would hold on to it for at least 5 more years or so when that spot is USDA PRIME Real Estate. If SF wants the eyesore (which I totally agree with) taken care of, someone is going to have to bite the bullet and pony up some cash.

| So that property isn't in violation of any zoning/building codes in Summerfield?

| From previous questions in the NWO, I am saying no. There may have been new developments since.

| Thanks to all the Friends For Summerfield for standing to show your support at the Town Council Meeting. Even though Ms Strickland asked for a "POINT of ORDER". I think that was a little extreme. This was not disruptive in any way.

Yep! And Good job speaking SMS!
Wonder what Crawford was thinking when he "warned" the FFS and reminded us that he "foolishly" backed that Mayor referendum and then backed out of it?
What foolish thing is he thinking that the FFS are gonna do?

| I am psyched. I think the opening remarks went great. BB you did a great job of presentation. Really good points and I especially liked your comments about the Friddle property. Steve so did you and I thought the paragraph we worked so hard on sounded so professional. You may have missed your calling as a preacher.

Agreed, and if you noticed, Mayor Brown ignored the request, so there was no harm done by standing.
