    D.    Consideration of Request for WURA to Pay for Starr Street Overlay: Chair Moore noted that this issue had been discussed last year, but no formal motion had been made. The City had not received the grant it had applied for, but had done the project anyway. The Agency determined that the money should come out of the Agency's budget, which would free up Road District #3 monies for other paving projects. Member Welch moved to approve the expenditure of $24,856.80, Member Boehme seconded. After noting that the actual amount was slightly higher, Member Welch amended his motion to approve the expenditure of $25,447.80. Member Boehme seconded the amendment, which then carried unanimously on a voice vote. The main motion, as amended, then carried unanimously on a voice vote.
    Chair Moore noted that the Agency had been approached by the property owner of the Seastrand Plaza, with a proposal to pay for pipe if the City paved the portion of Red Ditch adjacent to the property in order to provide additional parking. Chair Moore then moved to amend the budget for Fiscal Year 2001-2002 to include the project, in the amount of up to $5,000. Member Welch seconded the motion. Mr. Dowsett noted that this would be included in the Norwood/Starr project. The motion then carried unanimously on a voice vote. Staff noted that the resolution adopting the budget would be revised to reflect the action taken.
    E.    Consideration of Request to Suspend Sale of Motel Property: Chair Moore noted that previous discussions on this topic included the issue of getting the property back on the tax rolls as soon as possible. He advocated putting up a "For Sale" sign and considering any legitimate offer for all or part of the property. Mr. Dowsett suggested having a commercial appraisal done, there were no objections. Chair Moore moved to put up the sign and proceed with the sale. Member Welch seconded, and the motion carried unanimously on a voice vote.
