Dr. Parker, seconded by Mr. Marquardt, motion to authorize expenditure in the amount of $264,476.72 to Westlake Reed Leskosky for theater and exterior design for the Civic Center (estimated cost $2.662 million). Council President Buckholtz asked if there was any discussion. Mr. Saponaro indicated that there was really no discussion in Finance. We reviewed the Caucus Minutes. We did not approve this motion. This just came in this afternoon. Mr. Marrelli put it on the agenda. Dr. Parker added that before we spend this money we want to know how they are proposing to finance it. Council President Buckholtz asked if this was for their previous drawings. Dr. Parker indicated it was for their new drawings. Council President Buckholtz indicated that this is to build the facility. We are clearly not going to build the entire facility. Mayor Rinker stated that his understanding is that they were engaged to give us a feasibility study. The study provided a report on what can be done for $2.2 million. Council's feeling is that it is not feasible.
