Parker, City Manager SUBJECT: Request For Funding Under State Street Facade Improvement Program PURPOSE The purpose of this memorandum is to present to the Mayor and members of the City Council a request for funding a project under the State Street Facade Program. BACKGROUND The owner of 7 South State Street, William Vincent, has submitted an application for participation under the State Street Facade Program (attached) . The project proposed by Mr. Vincent would involve work on all three sides of the building, including window/door replacement, painting, awnings, light- ing, and tuckpointing. That work having the most impact would be removing the wood siding and mansard roof of the building' s west facade in order to expose the original facade . There is no indication as to the condition of the underlying facade . Since the improvements related to the second story facade cannot be planned until the cladding is removed, Mr. Vincent would like to proceed with that work first . The estimated cost of that work would not exceed $3 , 000 . Since the program provides the opportunity for a $3 , 000 rebate without obliga- tion to proceed for further work, demolition could be allowed and a rebate provided upon completion of that activity. Subsequent to the demolition, Mr. Vincent could request a rebate on additional approved improvements . COMMUNITY GROUPS/INTERESTED PERSONS CONTACTED None . FINANCIAL IMPACT Approval of the work purposed would result in a rebate to Mr. Vincent of up to $3 , 000 . 00 . There is no obligation to either Mr.Vincent or the City to fund future improvements without prior City Council approval . The total budget in the State Street Facade Program is $120, 000, and all expenses would be charged to Account No. 275-0000-791 . 78-99 .
