2. REVIEW OF STATUS OF MATTERS IN LITIGATION
i A. Cabalka
Attorney Keane reported on the litigation of this matter and requested a specified range of
acceptable solutions to the litigation.
B. USF&G
Attorney Keane reported on the GEH Construction dispute with USF&G. He explained
that at the time Shorewood was involved, Bob Alsop believed that a decision was
pending. If the decisions made are not consistent with Mr. Alsop's beliefs, the City may
file it's own grievance.
The City Council was in agreement with this assessment.
C. Gideon Woods / Ellers Billboard
Attorney Keane reported that only one principle use of the property is allowed so when
the project started, the billboard should have come down. He stated the contractual
obligation was also clear that when the lease expired, the billboard should have come
down. In 1997 the lease expired, and a new lease was entered into in 1998. However, he
opined that the lease is not legal. Attorney Keane suggested that Shorewood join Gideons
• Woods in a united front to void the second lease and remove the billboard.
