AMENDMENT TO LAND Mr. Kelly B::fton, attorney representing Trammell
SZ'.AP AGr E EMEi7'T Crow in the Gun Club 'Land explained to the

Al
of Trammell Crow selling or assigning the parcel of land.east of
Forestway Drive and the likelihood of rezoning litigation. Trustee

litigation. After further discussion, Trustee Marovitz moved, seconded
by Trustee Rosenthal, that the request of Trammell Crow to amend the
