A RESOLUTION authorizing the execution of a deed conveying the southern part of Lot 18, Section 7, N. W. 3, according to the Map of the Official Survey, heretofore authorized by Ordinance No. 11023. WHEREAS, by Ordinance No. 11023 heretofore adopted on the 2nd day of April, 1981, the sale of the lot or parcel of land hereinafter described to one Robert Gordon Gosney was authorized upon certain terms and conditions and the proper City officials were further authorized, upon receipt of the cash payment therein provided and upon the securing to the City of the payment of the deferred portion of said purchase price, to execute and deliver to the s.aid Gosney, or to whomsoever he shouL direct in writing, a proper deed of conveyance, and WHEREAS, pursuant to the aforesaid ordinance the City Attorney thereafter promptly prepared the requisite deed of conveyance, deferred purchase money notes and deed of trust securing the same and delivered the same to the City Clerk for proper execution, and WHEREAS, said City Clerk thereafter duly attempted to contact and secure the signature of the said Gosney to the deferred purchase money notes and deed of trust but was unable, until recently, to ascertain the whereabouts of the said Gosney, and WHEREAS, on or about the 28th day of April, 1984, the said Gosney presented himself to said City Clerk and stated that he no longer was interested in obtaining the conveyance of said land to himself but that he had assigned and transferred his entire interest in the same to one Selma Z. Saker to whom he directed in writing that the City's deed of conveyance be made and, thereupon, tendered to the City Cler] the balance of said purchase price, to-wit: the sum of $180.00 but not the interest provided for in the aforesaid ordinance, he having originally paid the cash~payment of $80.00 provided in said ordinance, and 20? WHEREAS, the City Clerk, being uncertain of the City's claim to interest on the deferred portion of said purchase price, which would have amounted to the sum of $6.00 upon the orderly payment of said notes, had said notes been duly executed, consulted the office of the City Attorney and was advised that the cost to the City of compelling a performance by the said Gosney of his offer of purchase would far exceed the amount of interest to which the City might be entitled or claim to be entitled and that, in the opinion of said City 'Attorney~ the said Gosney, never having executed the said notes or deed of trust, was not personally bound for the payment of any portion of said interest; and, further, that said Gosney was, by the terms of said ordinance, entitled to anticipate the payment of said deferred purchas~ price at any time and thus prevent the accrual of such interest, and VfHEREAS, the City Clerk, upon such advice, accepted the balance of said purchase price and accepted the written direction of said Gosney to convey said land directly to the said Selma Z. Saker~ and the City Attorney subsequently prepared the necessary papers for execution by the City's Mayor and its City Clerk, but a questim has now arisen'as to the propriety of the conveyance inasmuch as the interest mentioned in the aforesaid ordinance was not, infact~ incurred by the said Gosney and paid by him or his assignee, and WHEREAS, the latest appraisal of said lot for tax purposes in the 1980 reassessment indicated a market value of $116.00 and it was thereafter assessed for taxes in the name of its former owner at a value of $69.00, and ~HEREAS~ Council is now advised that if the City were to refuse to honor the aforesaid assignment by the said Gosney and, instead~ institute suit against the said Gosney for specific performance of his said offer, the cost to the City of such litigation would far exceed the value of said property and the enforcement or collectibility of any judgment resulting from such litigation would be highly uncertain. THEREFORE~ BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Roanoke that the actions of said City officials heretofore recited and set forth bey and they are hereby, ratified, approved and confirmed. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the written assignment of the said Robert Gordon Gosney to Selma Z.
