4. Downtown Fal;ade Improvement Program.
Mr. Leek presented the EDA with background information regarding a revised application from
David Jansen, owner of Valley Sports, in which he is requesting loan approval as part of the
Downtown Fayade Improvement Program. Mr. Leek said that Mr. Jansen incurred additional costs
than originally quoted, because it was determined that the replacement glass should consist of glass
that matches the existing glass size as opposed to additional framing to reduce the openings. Mr.
Jansen has resubmitted a revised bid, which resulted in an increase from $12,501.00 to $18,359.00
for framing and glass installation. Mr. Jansen is asking the City Council to consider the modification
and grant him an additional $2,929.00 for the installation of glass in his building fayade.
MendenlLehman moved to authorize the appropriate officials to enter into an agreement with David
Jansen, owner of the property at 102 1st Avenue West, for a deferred loan from the Downtown
Fayade Improvement program to fund an additional $2,929.00 (overall total of $10,882.00) for the
cost of the proposed windows, frames and sign restoration. Motion carried 5-0.
