Dear City Council,
Please say no to moving forward on negotiations for the purchase of an office building.
The building has been for sale and for lease for a long time and if it was such a good deal, someone else would have
bought it by now.
Furthermore, as a general rule, if you're going to purchase property, you need to occupy it for ten years to make it
economically feasible.
This is also a slap in the face to those residents who are suffering from reduced services and higher expenses from
the city.
Thanks, Rhoda Fry

PLEASE INCLUDE THIS AS PART OF WRITTEN COMMUNICATIONS FOR THE ABOVE MEETING
AGENDA ITEM.
Dear City Council and City Manager Wu,
PLEASE do not jump into this purchase without investigating leasing options for this building and others in the
area. I do not understand why renting is not even being considered!
Please authorize the City Manager to investigate rental options through the city first.
Sincerely,
Peggy Griffin
