Roger DeSpain explained the proposed contract. There was
discussion about the terms of the agreement. The Committee was
concerned about several facets of the contract, including the
liability clause and the lack of a termination clause. It was
also suggested that the Whatcom Soccer Commission submit a
schedule for the improvements they intend to make, that they
identify the area of the property they intend to develop first,
and that they be required to fence the property. Chairman Roehl
said that if these concerns could be resolved prior to the
Thursday (8/7) meeting he would be willing to bring the matter
before the full Council, but for the present it would be held in
the Committee.
The meeting was adjourned at 4:35 p.m.
