<br />Mr. Spah suggested that there maybe ways to reduce the bid for the Groveland Park Building by changing the specifications of various materials. <br />Mr. Spah offered to review the plans and specifications. Staff will provide these items to Mr. Spah. <br />The Commission asked about meeting with TKDA to discuss ways to reduce the cost. Look at alternate materials list or alternate specifications. <br />There was a consensus from the Committee not to loose any amenities in the building at this time. <br /> <br />A motion was made to direct staff to work with TKDA and have them provide recommendations on how to reduce the cost of the Groveland Building Project. <br />Motion made by: Kroeger <br /> 2nd: Kunz <br />Motion passed unanimously <br /> <br />Aaron Backman, the City’s Economic Development Coordinator, was present at the meeting. Aaron spoke regarding costs of relocating the clubhouse and contract schedules with Medtronic. <br />There are three general options regarding the fate of the clubhouse: <br />The clubhouse is demolished by Medtronic – no expense to the City. <br />Remove the clubhouse and relocate it somewhere within the City – the Commissioners should provide recommendation as to the preferred site and identify any associated issues. <br />Remove the clubhouse and sell it– is there a salvage value? <br /> <br />WHERE WOULD BE THE BEST LOCATION TO RELOCATE THE GOLF COURSE CLUBHOUSE? The Commission unanimously recommended that should the City retain the clubhouse that it be relocated to Random <br /> Park. <br /> <br />A motion was made to direct staff to develop cost estimates to relocate the Golf Course Clubhouse to Random park. These cost estimates should include the removal and transport of the <br /> clubhouse, the demolition and removal of the existing Random Park Building, and the site preparation work at Random Park. <br />Motion made by: Aukee <br /> 2nd: Silvis <br />Motion passed unanimously <br /> <br />Backman stated that moving expenses of the clubhouse may be Tax Increment Financing (TIF) eligible. He will continue to look into this possibility. <br />It was discussed and concluded that it would not be economically feasible to move the Random Building to Groveland Park.
