Michigan Citizen
HIGHLAND PARK-The Highland
Park Ci ty Council refused to take ac­
tion on a reque t by Finance Director
Michael L. Farri to approve $39,000
for the White Con truction Company
for demolition of house.
The propo al wa tabled at a prior
meeting, because of complaints by
the council that they had not received
eno�gh information from the ad­
mini tration,
C un il President Pro Tern Chris­
tine Franklin, aid that Farri provided
the coun il with the informati n, but
did o ,only at the last minute, just
before the meeting, before it could
adequately be studied. '
Sh aid orne wi hed to check and
ee if they were not being paid twice.
The council had already approved
payment in the fi cal year 1990/91,
but the appropriation was for Fire
Escrow fund, collected on fire
damaged properties demolished by
White Con truction). Farris aid that
the administration determined that
there was not enough funds available
in Fire, E crow to pay for the co t of
the demolition.
Farri aid that this action was un­
dertaken under the past administra­
tion of former Mayor Martha G. Scott
and the pre ent administration has no
rep onsibility for it.
Franklin expressed doubts about
this, asking if this debt was incurred
under former Mayor Scott, why did
the present officials wait ten months
to go back to the council with it an
why did White Construction Com­
pany take 0 long to deal with it.
Farri aid that there wa orne
delay in his own department, be­
cause it wa necessary to investigate
the validity of the debt. This was
further complicated by the fact that
Darwin Heard of the Community
Development Department did not ac­
knowledge the validity of the whole
debt and since left soon after, it was
not po ible to find out the reason
behi nd hi po ition.
