.ty of <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />9.9. <br /> <br />'ver <br /> <br />TO: <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />Mayor & City Council <br /> <br />Steve Ach, City Planner.~~~ <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />December 16, 1996 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Update on the Elk Terrace Mobile Home <br /> Park Closure <br /> <br />Since the November 18th City Council meeting when the public hearing was <br />held to hear public testimony regarding the proposed closure of the Elk <br />Terrace Mobile Home Court, some events have occurred which I thought the <br />council should be informed of. First of all, I have communicated directly with <br />Tony Gleekel, attorney representing the developers in this matter, to gain <br />some insight into the progress that has been made. Since Mr. Gleekel has <br />been in contact with Mr. John MacGibbon, the attorney representing the <br />Hohlens, I asked that the city be included in any correspondence which may <br />inform the City on the progress being made towards closure of the mobile <br />home park. Attached is the most recent correspondence I have received from <br />Mr. Gleekel along with a letter from Mr. John MacGibbon stating the <br />progress that has been made since the council's meeting in November. <br /> <br />Secondly, the park owner (Hohlens) has sent a notice to each resident <br />informing them of various meeting dates and times to discuss relocation costs <br />and other interests each resident may have. These dates have been set for <br />the middle of December. <br /> <br />Lastly, approximately two weeks ago I was contacted by a representative of <br />All Parks Alliance for Change (APAC) asking questions about the Elk <br />Terrace Mobile Home Park. APAC is a nonprofit organization of mobile home <br />park residents that works to protect the rights and improve park living <br />conditions for mobile home parks throughout the state. APAC took it upon <br />themselves to hold a meeting on December 9th and invited all of the residents <br />of Elk Terrace Mobile Home Park to discuss the park closure and options for <br />the residents. Enclosed for your information is a copy of the notice that was <br />sent out to the Elk Terrace residents. I have not heard the results of this <br />meeting. <br /> <br />In closing, if the council has any other questions or comments regarding this <br />particular project, please feel free to contact me. Otherwise, I will continue to <br />update the council on any progress on the park closure as I am made aware of <br />it. The Council is scheduled to continue the public hearing for the park <br />closure on January 21, 1997. <br />council\mhpclsr.doc <br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway · P.O.
