Mr. O'Campo indicated that he has been out of <br />business since September, 1986 and has looked at over 25 <br />replacement sites, all to no avail. He requested an advance of <br />his goodwill payment to offset his "down time". Mr. O'Campo is <br />disputing the $150,000 goodwill value as discussed with Agency <br />staff. Mr. O'Campo's attorney, Richard Riemer, repeated the <br />request for an advancement in the amount of $36,000. The City <br />Attorney, in response to questions from the Agency, indicated that <br />the burden ot proof of loss of goodwill is placed on the business <br />owner. One cannot establish goodwill until such time as the <br />business is reestablished at another location. In response to <br />questions from the Agency, the City Attorney responded that an <br />advance payment of goodwill was not appropriate. After further <br />discussion, the Agency Members directed staff to meet with Mr. <br />O'Campo and his counsel to resolve the payment issue. The City <br />Manager indicated that this matter would be scheduled for <br />discussion at the March 17 Agency meeting. <br /> <br />ADJOURNMENT <br /> <br />The r e be ing <br />meeting was <br /> <br />no further business to come before the Agency, the <br />"jo,".,' " ,," ,...~ <br /> <br />. <br /> <br /> <br />Executive Director <br /> <br />-4- <br />
