CALL TO ORDER Steve Slezak called the meeting to order. It was moved by Rick Goodale,
seconded by Ed Baldwin to approve the April 7, 1994 minutes. The minutes
were approved as written.
PARAMOUNT BLDG Chip Steiner introduced Norm Keally from Cozzola's Pizza who have purchased
the Paramount Building. Cozzola's Is looking for a conceptual commitment for
facade renovation. He explained proposed improvements for the facade and
sidewalk. Chip Steiner informed that Board that funds could be available from
the CDBG and DDA, however these funds are going to be used as matching
funds for a state historical grant. Gerry Horak moved that the DDA provide
funding which would be determined later after the design has been reviewed by
LPC to provide a historical facade, and DDA would review further at a later date.
Motion was seconded by Rick Goodale and carried.
CDBG PROPOSAL The Steering Committee has recommended $60,000 in funding which will be
reviewed by City Council at its meeting June 7. The Board urged Council
representative to convey the significance of the grant request for the DDA to the
entire council.
