Special Council Minutes <br />5/9/OS <br />Page 2 <br />more pieces. So there will be plenty of additional future involvement of Council-not only in the <br />numbers that are involved but in the actual acquisition of the property. <br />Council President Buckholtz asked, so this is more of a Resolution of Intent? <br />Mr. Diemert said yes; and to give us the authority to go ahead and start talking with the property <br />owner. <br />Council President Buckholtz said I am looking for a motion to adopt. <br />Mr. Diemert read the title (and asked Mrs. Roman for the number.) <br />First Reading of Resolution No. 2005-10, entitled; "An emergency resolution declaring the <br />necessity and intention to appropriate a fee simple interest in and to the premises located at 500 <br />S.O.M. Center Road and known as permanent parcel 831-009-005 to further the public purposes <br />of economic development and the conservation of natural resources in the Village." Introduced <br />by Mayor Rinker and Council as a Whole. <br />Mr. Saponaro, seconded by Dr. Parker, made a motion to adopt Resolution No. 2005-10. <br />Council President Buckholtz said we will go into the discussion portion but I thought before we <br />discuss it, we could understand the scope of how we got to this bit of business in regards to the <br />scope of the economic development of the property that we are speaking of. Having said that, we <br />have some representatives of Progressive (in the audience) if you would like to come up and show <br />us the genesis of your plan and how you arrived at what you felt would be best. <br />Council President Buckholtz said we have seen this and asked the Progressive representatives to <br />turn the display toward the audience. <br />Kim Price, Chief Administrative Officer at ProEressive - said I have been at Progressive for <br />18 years and I have been a Mayfield Village resident for 19 years. I have with me today Rose <br />Royle who is the Project Manager for this initiative. Rose will walk us through the site plans. We <br />actually have copies to hand out as well. <br />Rose Rovle said just to kind of walk everyone through our process, as we were loolcing to <br />develop some additional land, we originally started out with our project team at Progressive and <br />we pulled out the original master concept that Mayfield Village put together back in 1997. What <br />we wanted to do is we wanted to get an understanding of what was designed on the property and <br />the parcels and understand the intent of that design to incorporate the recreational and the <br />wetlands and to make it very neighborhood friendly. I will show you what we have put together. <br />This is where we currently have a Master Plan to date. What we have done is we have kept our <br />building, our parking garages, our service lot, tucked up into the area of the parcels that were <br />zoned for commercial office distribution areas. Then we maintained the recreational and the <br />residential area at the bottom. What we wanted to do, is we originally tried some concepts <br />working with one parcel and what we found out is the buildings got too tight, the garages got too <br />high and it became somewhat obtrusive to the height of the buildings and the density and the
