CITY MANAGER City Manager McCabe: I have no report. CITY ATTORNEY Acting City Attorney Tobin: No report. OTHER STAFF — No reports. MAYOR Mayor Morgan: Nothing. CITY COUNCIL Councilman Waters: I have... Mayor Morgan: Yes... Councilman Waters: ...one item. Mayor Morgan: ...George Councilman Waters: I would like to uh ask the City Council, or any members of the Council if you've given some thought to the idea of the uh sending out some letters to the main hotel chains, having the City Manager send 'em out, or staff, uh to all main hotel chains asking them to look over the site down here at 8th & National City Blvd. for a possible high rise hotel? And also contact all the main restaurant chains uh, to uh find out if there is a interested uh restaurant that would like to put a steak/lobster place here and so forth. And uh, has anybody give any thought to that, whether we could do something like that? Book 67/Page 56 5/20/86 Vice Mayor VanDeventer: Could 1 speak to that, George? Councilman Waters: Yeah, Jess. Vice Mayor VanDeventer: Uh, I know in the, since our last discussion, there's been some developers that have proposed to, that we'll be proposing for that. At this point, I think we're a little premature because I, I think we have some that are gonna come forward that you will like. Councilman Waters: Well I've been hearing about several... Vice Mayor VanDeventer: Well... Councilman Waters: ...but I haven't... Vice Mayor VanDeventer: Well, that there... Councilman Waters: ...seen anything in writing yet. Vice Mayor VanDeventer: Well there uh, the reasoning be, behind that uh is is that they want to know the total square footage and what will be coming from that, and they are also looking at related business surrounding the other blocks uh, as far as other projects. And I think Mr. Peterson will be coming back during the next uh few weeks for us to put out to major developers for the future, uh what they propose. And I think as far as one of the requirements, I think all of us sit up here are looking at a major motel and a major restaurant, and has made the base on it, and I think that'll answer your question. Councilman Waters: You think it's uh, we should uh, 1, I'm aware of, of, of several, but uh, you think it's, we should maybe limit it? Did you find, in the meantime uh how he got this information? Did he go directly to uh all the hotel chains, or did he limit to just one or two? Vice Mayor VanDeventer: Well... Councilman Waters: You know that? Vice Mayor VanDeventer: The, the developers that have talked to me... Councilman Waters: Uh huh. Vice Mayor VanDeventer: ...the developers are ones that are, are gonna talk directly with the major chains theirselves. ' Councilman Waters: Uh huh. Vice Mayor VanDeventer: And they're trying to put a package and, and look at the, all four corners, what's both suited financially for them as a developer so that it will blend into the what we're asking for in development of all the four corners in style and a product that we want. Uh, there's some that develop more than one motel in the project. Councilman Waters: Well see, I, I, I read holes through that project when this guy was up here, and by the way, I want to compliment the uh, uh the news media for covering that pretty well, because the, even the uh, a lot of people in this City is really upset about their comments uh of the, that guy that made those reports. And uh, the, the thing that concerned me, see, he worked directly with uh Mr. Peterson, you know, an awful lot. Vice Mayor Van Deventer: Most of these... Councilman Waters: And uh, I'm talking about the, our, our last report, and I read into that uh, I can almost tell you who made up those reports uh just by what it said. And uh I was getting a little concerned about him uh handling it for the reasons uh we brought this up quite a few times over the last uh four or five months. And I, I didn't think he was working on it because he's never made any comment. Vice Mayor VanDeventer: I... Councilman Waters: So I wanted to, to put it in the hands of, of, of the City staff and see if we couldn't get the ball rolling on that. Vice Mayor VanDeventer: I think uh George, I think... Councilman Waters: (Several words unintelligible) happening, I'll, I'll second that. Vice Mayor VanDeventer: Yes, it, it's in the works. It's, it's not gonna move as fast as we'd like to see it. It is working. There is major developer people looking at it at this point. I, I cannot commit until they really see what the end result and time, a lot of it is the timetable, and I think Mr. Peterson will be coming back with those answers for us in the near future. Councilman Waters: Okay. Mayor Morgan: Anyone else? Motion to adjourn to tomorrow at 7:00 at Harbison School is in order and... Vice Mayor VanDeventer: Second. Mayor Morgan: ...the regular general meeting next week. Councilman Waters: That's, 1111 move. Vice Mayor VanDeventer: Second.
