563
Councilmember Kaptain indicated he would not be voting for the resolution due to the project’s

entryway to the downtown area. City Manager Folarin indicated that it could possibly be seeded
and some flowers planted. Councilmember Powers stated that he understood that the reason this
project was being delayed was due to the housing market and that he would support it.
Councilmember Steffen indicated that he would not support the amendment and that he felt the
length of time was too long.
Mayor Schock stated that the City could ask the developer for a market study at the developer’s
expense. He also indicated that some statements in the newspapers had been erroneous. He
stated that all of the agreements with the developers are contingent upon performance. They
only get paid as the project progresses. He indicated that to date, the only expense to the City for
this project has been the cost of the demolition of the building. This had to be done due to the
flooding and mold issues. The developer has not received nor is due any other payments.
