is used for golf course purposes. In the event the Elks Club or its
successors in interest discontinue the use of'the Easement Area as
part of 9 hole or more golf course then the easement shall
terminate and the use and possession of the Easement Area shall
revert to the City. In the event all or any part of the easement area

restrictive than the chemical use restrictions applicable to the
Easement Area. In the event that said area lying north and west of
the Easement Area is developed by the City for public use, said
chemical use restrictions shall also be applicable to the City's use
of chemicals on said area.

samples collected from said wells available to the Elks Club within
a reasonable time after receiving a written request for said test
results from the Elks Club. If the City discontinues its monitoring
along the South and East boundaries of the easement area, it may
also discontinue its monitoring activities along the North line of the
Easement Area.
SUSPENSION OF CHEMICAL USE BY THE ELKS CLUB.
The City shall have the right to order the Elks Club to suspend the
application of chemicals on the Easement Area if the City
determines in good faith and based upon reasonable evidence
collected as a result of its monitoring activities that the continued
application of certain chemicals on the Easement Area presents an
imminent danger to the public health and safety.

MEMORANDUM
Date:
To:
From:
October 14, 1997
City Council
Eleanor Dilkes, City Attorney
Subject: Agreement with Elks Club
Since the Elks and the Council reached a mediated agreement at the
end of July, staff and the Elks' attorneys have been in the process
of reducing the parties' verbal agreement to writing. We now have
a proposed written agreement that we believe reflects the parties'
agreement. We would like to get the agreement executed as soon as
possible so that the Elks can do the grading and seeding of the
golf hole area yet this fall. This is to both parties' advantage
as it increases the likelihood that the Elks will be able to
complete the golf hole construction during the 1998 construction
season. The City cannot begin the construction of Foster Road
until the golf hole construction is complete.
It is unlikely that the Elks will be able to do the grading and
seeding this fall if the agreement is not executed by October 21.
The Elks' survey of the golf holes and the City's surveys of the
Foster Road extension and the easements are not yet complete.
Therefore, the agreement attaches general descriptions of these
areas and provides a right to each party to approve the other
party's final survey. Chuck $chmadeke has met with the Elks and
the Elks concur with the general alignment of the road that is
attached to the agreement. Under this alignment, an attempt will
be made to preserve the large oak tree. In order to save the two
oak trees at the end of the road extension we would have to
encroach on the Meardon property to the west.
The State Code requires a public hearing prior to a City's
disposition of property by sale or lease for a term of more than
three years. Conveyances are not being made at this time but once
executed, the agreement will require the City to make conveyances
in the future. Therefore, I believe it is necessary to hold a
public hearing prior to the Council's execution of the agreement.
A Special Meeting has been called for Thursday, October 16 in order
to set a public hearing on the Council's intent to execute the
agreement. A resolution authorizing execution of the agreement
will be on the October 21 agenda.
