8. CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING EXECUTION OF AGREEMENT
WITH CITY OF SELAH REGARDING DISPOSITION OF TROLLEY TRACKS
Glenn Rice, Assistant City Manager, introduced this item and
provided a brief summary of this issue. Paul McMurry, 120 North
Naches Avenue, representing the Yakima Interurban Lines
Association, stated for the record that they were willing to
sign the document as it is drafted. John Sweesy, Mayor, City of
Selah, responded to questions from Council members concerning
the easement definition, the discrepancy between the original
drawing of the trolley destination and the latest drawing
provided, as well as the size and accessibility of the parking
facility. After discussion among Council members to adopt the
resolution pending resolution of the legal description of the
easement and concurrence on the destination stop and Resolution
No. R-93-60 having been read by title, it was MOVED BY SEMON,
SECONDED BY SIMS, TO ADOPT THE RESOLUTION. IT WAS MOVED

9. REPORT REGARDING STATUS OF REQUEST TO PIPE AND COVER TWO
SECTIONS OF THE FRUITVALE CANAL (16TH AVENUE TO SWAN AVENUE AND 20TH

can provide some information re the missing Res No R-93-60 It appears that when r-
93-60 was introduced to Council there were some problems identified with the Exhibit C
and Easement that were attached to it. The Exhibit C failed to identify the location of
the new trolley stop and the easement apparently had an erroneous legal
description What seems to have happened is the Resolution 93-60 was revised and
then approved as R-93-77 Therefore, I don't believe that R-93-60 is actually missing,
but it was discussed and revised, then entered as R-93-77 What is not clear is whether
the errors that were identified in the minutes from the discussion of No 60 were ever
corrected in the approved 77, but I guess we have to assume they were or the
documents would not have ultimately been signed Thanks again! JC
