LAND - VICINITY OF LINCOLN TERRACE: The following correspondence was received

"On November 19,-1968, the two corporations which own Lincoln
Terrace conveyed to the City certain land owned by them with the
provision that if the City did not, within one year from that
date, commence construction of a.community.facility., then the land
would revert to the Grantors. Since the City has not commenced'
this construction, I have been requested to ask that a Deed from
the City be executed - conveying title to the land back to the
original Grantors. For your information, I am enclosing a copy of
the Deed. I will look forward to receiving the Deed from you. If
you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch with
me.n

of reaching an equitable solution.
