RESOLUTION NO. 217
RESOLUTION APPROVING CONTRACT WITH MCBRYDE, CRISP, AND ASSOCIATES
FOR STUDY OF ALTERNATE USE, PRELIMINARY DESIGN AND
COST ESTIMATES ON THE OLD POST OFFICE BUILDING
Mr. Kumpe explained that when the Urban Renewal Project ends December,
1976, the Old Post Office building will revert to the City. However,
if the City should find it inpractical before the close of the project
to use the building, it would be good to have a survey of alternate
uses for the building. The cost of this survey can be added to the
purchase price of the building should it be sold. Mr. Kumpe stated
that he has talked with the City Manager, Don Grimes, and Mr. Grimes
statedkthat due to the present situation of the City, they are also
interested in the results of such a survey.
Mr. Gould asked Mayor Orton for, her comments. Mrs. Orton stated that
she also has talked with Mr. Grimes concerning this. They feel that
since the City cannot make a committment concerning the building
at this time, that this survey may be beneficial to the City also.
After discussion, Resolution No. 217 was approved by motion of
Mr. Underwood, seconded by Mr. Morgan, and carried unanimously.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.
