Mr. Clark recalled that the council had discussed the need for a complete city block and the Sears site did <br />not meet that criterion. <br /> <br />Ms. Ing summarized the council’s information requests, which included: 1) a comparison of the costs of <br />leasing space in the federal building versus buying the building; 2) more information on the costs of the <br />patrol building and how they were established; 3) cost ranges for the patrol building based on less expensive <br />criteria; 4) more due diligence on the deed restrictions associated with the butterfly parking lot; and 5) <br />relocation costs with an escalation factor to 2010. <br /> <br />Mr. Pryor suggested that on July 11, the council select a single site. He left the meeting. <br /> <br />Mr. Clark requested information about why the EWEB site was not viable. <br /> <br />Ms. Solomon thought the council had majority support for a single site and recommended that it proceed. <br /> <br />Ms. Bettman cautioned that if the council was only to consider the options involving Rock ‘N Rodeo and the <br />butterfly lot or the existing City Hall site on July 11, the outcome would not bode well for the future of the <br />project. <br /> <br />Mr. Zelenka thought the Sears site was acceptable as it was the back-up site to the butterfly parking lot and <br />Rock ‘N Rodeo site. He agreed with the mayor that the cost and expense of holding on to the butterfly lot <br />and Rock ‘N Rodeo site were not worth it. He pointed out the only thing that had changed in regard to the <br />existing City Hall site was the added nuance of the available space in the federal building. <br /> <br />The meeting adjourned at 3:05 p.m. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Dennis M.
