Council weighs architect study for third-floor rentals and checks bond limits
Summary
Council discussed bringing an architect to assess converting the community center's third floor for rental uses, while Chairman Thompson raised a bond covenant that may have limited third-floor use to non-profits and pledged to verify whether the bond has been retired.
Mayor Chad Gluss and Councilwoman Jacklyn Bartkowski said an architect will examine whether the community center's upstairs space can be made suitable for rentals or workspaces. Bartkowski said the architect has extensive renovation experience and will outline feasible options.
Chairman Garry Thompson raised a financing constraint: he said the bond issued to finance improvements "only permitted us to put non-profits on the third floor" and that the council must verify whether the bond has been paid off before recommending other uses. Mayor Gluss said he would confirm the bond status with the finance department. No formal action was taken; the council awaits the architect's report and the finance department's confirmation.
