George Chandler advised the council that advertising for bids was safest to solve the land sale. Franta claimed the city would benefit if he could buy the land, promising two new businesses a Mobile Oil Co. service station and a Goodyear Tire store with a combined taxable value over 200000. The city had once granted the land to Franta in 1961 but later adopted a policy barring city land giveaways, which remains in force. He said he has believed he owned the strip for 11 years, having purchased it from the Pruett Estate 14 years ago and later learning it belonged to the city.
