<br /> <br />? <br />Cheapness now does not mean we will save money in the long run <br /> <br />? <br />How much does the building put on the property tax rolls? What are we doing to do with the <br /> <br />savings? <br />? <br />What happened to the $1.2M? <br /> <br />? <br />15% cut salary <br /> <br />? <br />Building from tax roll? <br /> <br />? <br />What is the savings? <br /> <br />? <br />In the interest of realtors, property value and the value of the surrounding property, both <br /> <br />downtown and around Country Club Road <br /> <br />Public Involvement <br />? <br />Have a public hearing, up or down. Yes/no invitation, more transparent <br /> <br />? <br />Perception of thorough involvement = support for additional needed funds <br /> <br />? <br />Fix process somewhat – public hearing in 1 week – save staff time to determine political viability <br /> <br />(overcome journalists as issue framers’ problem) <br />? <br />What happened to the City Hall Public Process? <br /> <br />? <br />Why this question? <br /> <br />? <br />Put this issue to the voters <br /> <br />? <br />Consider asking voters (i.e. site) <br /> <br />? <br />Don’t send to the voters, we elected people to figure this out <br /> <br />? <br />$1,000 contest for school kids to design City Hall, what would happen is that people would be <br /> <br />involved at a grass roots level to cultivate support and best ideas <br /> <br />Police Involvement in Process <br />? <br />It is unfortunate that police is not part of this process. [Interactions] with the University sub- <br /> <br />station, considers them to be incredibly involved with the public. Element missing from process. <br />? <br />Why is EPD not here? <br /> <br />? <br />What does the Police Advisory Board think? <br /> <br /> <br />Misc <br />? <br />What’s the rush? <br /> <br />? <br />What about court? <br /> <br />? <br />Can courts move with Police to Country Club Road? [If so] That would be worth exploring <br /> <br />? <br />What is cost of travel between City Hall and County Courthouse? <br /> <br />? <br />More eyes on the street. Public buildings not used at night. Active uses [downtown] needed. <br /> <br />[More] details. <br />? <br />EPD is like a spare tire; keep in the trunk until you need it. We’ll never get a City Hall as long as <br /> <br />police is there <br />? <br />If the space at Country Club Road is double what is currently used, are [non-police] City services <br /> <br />going to be combined there? At the current rate, it doesn’t seem that more police are really <br />going to happen. <br />? <br />If Mike Penwell has not been able to “sell” this after so many years [11] working on it, maybe <br /> <br />another spokesperson would help; perhaps a “changing of the guard.” Another participant <br />commended Mike for bringing people together. <br />Page 10 of 11 <br />Consolidated Comments from June 09 Public Forums.docx <br /> <br /> <br />
