Motion by Dahl, seconded. by Hogan, that no action be taken until a proposal is received from the County Board. Motion passed. Gunderman, Johnson naye. Carlson said there are other alternatives if someone wanted to make a second motion for .another plan as to what to do .with the property. Dahl said-that people may prefer negotiations with the County staff before it gets to the Board. Anderson reminded. everyone there are only seven days to work with this. Carlson stated he supports Dahl's motion because we don't have enough information or time to evaluate the proposal.
