Chip Steiner informed the Board that the parking garage had won
a top national award from the Institutional and Municipal Parking
Congress for parking design and program innovation.
The first item discussed was the railroad update. Background
information had been included in each Board member's packet and this
information was discussed. Dan Larsen stressed that the DDA should
look into rezoning the railroad land. Staff was directed to
continue working on this issue.
The next item was the plaza close-out report with Dick Beardmore
The topics reviewed included:
• Cost and Schedule
• Recommendations
• Impacts
• Overall Evaluation of Project and Participants
Jim Reidhead, project manager for Old Town Associates during the
construction, made a few comments. Lynn Moore from SLP commented on
the condition of the landscaping. Hermi LaPoint, property manager
for E.E. Mitchell, commented on the maintenance of the plaza.
The general consensus toward the project as a whole was very
positive.
Mr. Beardmore asked the Board to consider adding a contractor
prequalification section to the Project Management Guide. A
committee consisting of Earl Wilkinson and Chip Steiner will bring
a recommendation concerning this item back to the Board.
The next item discussed was the financial update with Jim Harmon.
He explained that the DDA has five different types of funds. He
also stated that the Finance Department was just finishing the audit
for 1985 and that he was still working on his report of the DDA
finances for the Board. A committee which included Bill
Friedrichsen, George Betz and staff was formed to meet with Mr.
Harmon before the next Board meeting to be sure the financial report
would be presented in "layman" terms.
Under other business, a letter from the owner of the Airporter
requesting use of the fire lane at Old Town to pick up and drop off
passengers was discussed. Staff was directed to further look into
this idea.
There being no other business, the meeting was adjourned.
