The employ of special counsel has had a tremendous effect in collections of delinquent assessments. In 1977, accounts of I.D. 11 were nearly depleted; in '80 , the reserve fund was fully restored; and by '83 , a surplus in the account provided for the redemption of all other outstanding bonds, , leaving a balance to be refunded . Special counsel has estimated $7,500 to be sufficient for the payment of legal services, for what should be the final law suit , in receiving the court ' s decision on conflicting claims for the refund. With the sale of the final four foreclosed lots in April '85 , it is anticipated that the district can be closed by the end of 1985 . In Committee discussion, Councilman Schutte expressed his hopes that this would be the last request for monies for special counsel for I.D. 11 . Councilman Domingo was assured that the special counsel would not change. Your Committee on Finance concurs with the intent of Bill 40 and recommends that it pass first reading/ AMA LAI )16 FRANK DE LUZ , III, CHAIRMAN // )‘C 5%L aSSLYGoZ 61 ,,_f.L'ORRAINE R. - JIT HAKU, VI CHR.
