The EDA received construction and development updates for properties along High Street at its April 15 meeting.
Julie (project presenter) reported on 1117 and 1121 High Street. She said construction documents for converting 1117 (the former Shiny Computers building) to a vanilla shell and replacing the roof have been submitted to the city for review. Plans include an architect‑recommended Columbia Gas line extension to the building to allow more flexible tenant HVAC systems; the extension was estimated at $55,000. Julie said the extension is recommended to support future tenants and more efficient HVAC configurations.
Board members asked for confirmation about contracting and sign‑off paperwork; staff said they would correct a misspelling on a DocuSign form and that the board gave consensus to proceed with the gas line agreement and scheduling for the work.
On 1028 High Street, Julie said demolition construction documents are under city review and staff plans to begin demolition shortly after Muralfest to avoid schedule conflicts.
No formal vote was required for the property updates; staff recorded board consensus to proceed with the gas line agreement for 1117 High Street and to schedule demolition of 1028 High Street after Muralfest.
