Ms. Patty Cole, Al Neyer, LLC, Asset Management
Ms. Cole stated that 48,000 sf of the west end of the existing structure would be removed. The existing roof will be replaced on remaining section of building. The new east elevation will become a split faced block and the architectural features of the front façade will be carried over to the east elevation. The block will be 2 tone in color and similar to the surgery center. The front, west and east sides of the building will be repainted. The parking lot in various areas will be seal coated and re-striped. Areas of rough pavement will be repaired and the area where the old ‘Hardees’ restaurant sat will be repaved. The recessed loading dock behind JoAnn Fabrics will be filled in. The area that will be demolished will be turned into lawn. This area will be seeded. The
demolishing of the 48,000 sf will enhance the remainder of the property and the area will be marketed as an outlot or outlots.
A motion was made by Susan van Amerongen and seconded by Rob Adams to recommend approval of the demolition and site improvements with the following conditions:
