<br />City of La Porte <br />Interoffice Memorandum <br /> <br /> <br />From: <br /> <br />All LPEDC Board Members <br />Gretchen B~ EDC <br />Ron BottoJ2 City Manager <br /> <br /> <br />To: <br /> <br />Through: <br /> <br />Date: <br /> <br />February 17, 2008 <br /> <br />Subject: <br /> <br />Town Square <br /> <br />We would like to request that the Board consider authorizing staff to proceed with an <br />appraisal of the triangle property located between Broadway, San Jacinto and East A <br />Streets across from 117 San Jacinto. Additionally, we are also asking the Board to <br />consider authorizing staff to proceed with selecting a firm to provide architectural <br />renderings of the proposed town square. Both of the these projects would be the first <br />steps necessary to create the concept and to move the project forward. <br /> <br />If this request is approved by the Board we will select an appraiser from an approved <br />city list. For the architectural renderings we will meet with firms to discuss the proposed <br />concept and then based upon those discussions select a firm to proceed. In order to <br />expedite this process we are requesting authorization to have the Board approve a <br />budget adjustment for the services not to exceed $30,000. We will also be presenting <br />this request for consideration to the City Council at their regular meeting on the 25th. <br /> <br />We look forward to discussing this with you at the meeting however, should you have <br />questions in advance of the meeting please feel free to let us know. <br />
