-(01541 2c AMENDMENT TO PURCHASE AGREEMENT REGARDING LUZENAC PROPERTY: This is a proposed amended agreement for purchasing the Luzenac property. The property has been inspected by the Corp of Engineers and there are no wet lands and GEO Technical Services has also inspected the property and there are no unusual problems regarding the soil conditions and there is no contamination of the soil. The Nebraska Department of Roads and the City of Grand Island has approved two points of access to this property. All of the conditions have been met the only problem is the property must be subdivided and the county will need to pay a connection fee for the city sewer.
