EAGLES PARKMG AREA - REPORT OF COM11ITTEE The follol-Ting r(,-port submitted by Comm1s,;_1.c)ner Barr, Chairman of the Builcings and Grounds Committee was Drese-ited and read: At the last meeting the Sa-,,-)erstone offer of a parking area lease -,as referred to our committee and the City Attorney. ,11e'have made a careful study of the area offered and the proposed terms of the lease. Our attorney feels that there are no Important legal difficulties. There are, however, other important considera-tions to be i,Teighod. During the last V-ro years this Board has tried to develop a comprehensive off-street program. Five properties have been acquired by )-)urchase or lease to eugment the original Green Street lot. Three areas are in 11-,hn central business district - namely the 100 block of Green Street, the deGrassi property and the Wjlco> property ( this last lot in -ithin 300 to 210 of the proposed site.)There is a j,ot in the 300 block ox' Wiest Stp.te Street; there is a small lct In thtc crest end. business district; there is a. 56 car lot in coL-1egeto,,,Tn. When the Board last asked the -he Council for fune,-s it off--r-C what seemed. to be a rather compl."ete program, in fact the area under discussion lofas considered and discarded because of the yJanned and already-surveyed arterial highway construction af,k,_,ctIng al'I the properties, The Council has supporte4 this program and made the ne7,e�,-r, ary funds a_vRilable. All funds no- avallable to the Board ar,. ear•marhed for projects authorized and uncterlray. If further jevelopmentg are to be atte.np..ed Pt t'ni6 our comm�_tt*:;e fecis that action s1iould come eirectl',v f--Gr- 11e, Common, p,--_rt1c,,ilar1y because of the te,-ipo:,acy ne"I"00e of the oro,eot. Therefore, I move that this Board 1,rithout recommen,1Etio_"_ refer the Saperstone letter of August 10, 1949 and our 6tudies to the Common Counctl for consideration. The motion 1,Tas seconded by Commissioner O'Connor and by a poll vote was unanimously carried.
