62 Mrs. Coats, owner of property directly involved on Farm Hill Blvd., advised "dirt which had entered home was available to any one who wanted to take it back up the hill". Councilman Henderson felt it appropriate that Council meet in Executive Session at close of this meeting in order that answers could be supplied to Council by City Attorney and City Manager on several of allegations which had been made, — namely available insurance and present enlarging of the slide area.
