BACKGROUND

The TCEDC has the opportunity to purchase the building located at 615 7th Avenue North, legally described as ABST 205 PAGE 6 LOT 9 BLK 154 TEXAS CITY. It is proposed that the TCEDC pays $10,600 (CAD value) and forgives the owner, Les Gilliam, of his debt under an Incentive Package Agreement dated July 6, 2015. Total debt to be forgiven under said agreement is $8,650. The owner of Hey Mikey's Ice Cream intends to purchase the building from the TCEDC.
