session for the Council to discuss and formally earmark the money
for the airport realignment.

The bidding process included three criteria: 1) cash at closing; 2)
closing to take place within 90 days of bid award; and 3)
construction is to be completed by 2004. The two offering documents
met the first two criteria, however, neither offer could guarantee
completion by 2004.
Kenyon asked if there was going to be any problem with the offers
not meeting the third criteria..
Kukulski stated the City's bond counsel feels the City, since 1997,
has made every attempt to sell this property in compliance with
State law and not meeting the third criteria isn't a problem.
Susan Moyer, Community Development Director, said the reason
Whitefish Credit Union is estimating construction completion for
2006 is because they want to make sure the site can be utilized to
its maximum and that depends on the highway. She said if the
highway reconstruction is finalized soon, then they would consider
moving up the completion date.
The motion carried unanimously upon roll call vote.
