Ed Elliott, Country Club Circle (employed by Bane Federal Savings & Loan Assoc.), and a member of the Board of Trustees of the First Presbyterian Church, spoke on behalf of the church. In 1961, the parcel of land was not in the Village since it did not have the maley to buy the 14 acres. The Village purchased the land for approximately $4,500 per acre for a totla purchase price of $56,000. The First Presbyterian Church purchased 7 acres of land from the Village for approximately $49,000. The church agreed to be annexed into the Village at R-2 zoning, which allows churches. The area is buffered by R-2 zoning; a park and Garden Apartments. The value of the land enables the church to borrow against the land at R-2. He estimated that at R-2, the land may be worth as much as $80,000 per acre; R-1 may be worth $20,000-$25,000 per acre.
