to the City. Stifel Nicolaus & Company, Inc., his new account
manager, is stating the monies were never received from the City.

administration began in April of this year and has recently been
denied by the staff. He was now addressing Council asking for
their consideration in this matter. The surrendered amount in
1984 was $2,324.03 and Stifel is now showing a current value of
$13,000.00.
Mr. Ray reviewed with Council the administration's position for
denial.
Mr. Cates questioned whether this was a valid claim because of
the statute of limitations and requested additional information
and time to review and deliberate this issue.
Mr. Charney offered to settle for $2,500.00 at this time, but Mr.
Cates stated Stifel needs to explain in more detail.
After discussion by Council and all parties involved, a motion
was made by Mayor Marlar, seconded by J. Phillips, to table this
item for further discussion and deliberation at a special meeting
at 6:00 p.m. on February 2, 1993. This item will be included on
