He also states that the Muellers desire to continue communication toward reaching a settlement.

Mr. Haney is comfortable with our appraised value, there is no time specified with reference to undertaking condemnation proceedings, and he feels that negotiations are proceeding satisfactorily. He suggested the commission allow these negotiations to continue, as there is no expectation that the tenor will change. Under New Business, there are several invoices are under consideration.
