Prior to a vote on the above motion, the following comments were heard. Don Temeyer, City Planner, reported that Main Street Waterloo and Silos and Smokestacks are willing to participate. The cost for the city would be $4,300.00. The services provides by National Trust's Heritage Property include: review and analyze the Sycamore Street Market New Action Plan to determine the economic viability of Phase I of Sycamore Market (the Public Market) as a stand-alone entity; perform market and economic feasibility analysis of Phase II (the Special Events Market) and Phase III (The Market Plaza).

Community Partners will prepare a final report. The proposed cost for the services is $13,050.00, of which the city would be responsible for $4,300.00, Main Street Waterloo would pay $2,350.00, Silos & Smokestacks would pay $2,350.00 and $4,000.00 would be an in-kind contribution by Heritage Property Services, Councilperson Jordan questioned if the funds that have been awarded for the Public Market are being accounted for. Councilperson Jordan asked why the city has to be involved in providing this service for the public market, and it seems like they are always asking the city to contribute more money. Councilperson Murphy stated he has concerns with having the market and band shell at this location because of the railroad tracks and the number of times per day a train crosses the tracks at this area. Councilperson Getty stated that he does not feel he has enough information on the proposal to make a decision. Councilperson Krizek stated that the architect is looking at the building location and its proximity to the railroad tracks. Councilperson Krizek stated that the evaluation will give us new strategies, and that we have already put a lot of money into the building. Councilperson Anders stated that $4,300.00 will give the city answers as to whether we should go forward with this project. Councilperson Anders stated that he feels the public market is a benefit for the community. Councilperson Getty asked what will the consultant tell us that we don't already know. The city does not have the money to do all the things that have been suggested. Councilperson Jordan stated that the $4,300.00 is not the issue, but they keep coming back for more and more funding. Councilperson Jordan stated that he does not support approving the agreement, but he is willing to forward it to the full council for their review. Councilperson Getty stated that he will not support the agreement tonight or even if it is placed on the council agenda. Councilperson Getty stated that the public market is a good idea, but he personally feels that we need to draw the line in the sand and say enough. / . xlaj3'cTID lta)jog/CoueM •paurea uotlow •aazta :so/Cy •ut•d SZ:Sin patunofpe aq utlaaut alp pip lazu}I kg papuooas 'Alpo kg panout seen ii `pounoo alp amp(' ssautsnq JagiznJ ou !pm •paureo uotlow •aaigs :saAy •penotdde.ioj pounoo jjnj aqi of paprenuo3 pue panoidde pue apt uo paoejd `paniaoai aq `178•I96`OZy`I$ Jo lunotue aqi ui 666I `i An gad PaPPP '86 -i 'dd `0b9dd aInPagoS ui paureluoo se `fuaw ed sjjig imp /azu)I kg papuooas 'Anon kg'mow •paureo uotioN •aana :sakv •panoldde aq 00'S99$Jo funotue aqf ut (ssautsng-Ianau) 9y£I wall auig °seatout pun 00•S99$Jo lunouxe agl ut (anuanag •osiN) 008E wail our OsEOJOU! of uoilezuoglne ioj mom) Suipjmg am Jo isanbal alp pip }lazux kg papuooas `kIIOD kg panoy\I •pauteo uogow •aaujJ :saiCy •panoldde aq(sired fuautdmbg) 'Lc' wanI aurj of(luatudtnbg uotiotuisuoD uotlonpo.id) ` IZIZ woII aurl utog 00'00Z`17$ `•(ivautdlnbg aotj•IO) 9L£1 wail aut-I of (saolmag IeuoIssaJozd iogio) 61£I woll our WO.t3 00'00Z$ JO3sun.Ii of uOtlezuoglne .10J suog1JadO otjJEII Jo fuapualupadn$ alp Jo fsanbai agl legl )Iazu}I kg papuooas `Aiimp kg panolAI •pa!ueo uoilow •aa.njs :saAy •panoJdde aq aoinap Inman .ta2ue)lidH of s.uedat JoJ 00'OOS`c$ puadxa of uotlezuogine-aid Jo3 suotfnladO ogwell3o luapualutaadnS aqi Jo isanba.t aql legl lazt.t}I kg papuooas `Amp Aq panoyv •paLUeo uotloyAl •aa.njj :saACy •panoldde aq saingoOlq satltniloe Ajzeak 3o satdoo 000`Zi Jo 8uqu!Jd.zoo 00'OZ6`ti$ Puadxa of uotleziioglne -ajd ioj JolOat!Q saOtn.tas a.msta'l all Jo isanbai alp imp )jazu}I kg papuooas `AlloD kg pa/tow •paiueo uotloyq •aalgi :saicy •panoldde aq asnoyl eaj uol2uigseM le 2uglieJ JoJ 1Ced of (x 'czc'8$ Puadxa of uoiiezuoglne -atd .to3 .toloa.nU SOOIA.taS ainsla'J aql Jo isanbai aqi imp ?IaZU.])I Aq papuooas 'Alpo kg panol^I •pa11eo uotlojAI •alaz!J}I :sAelq •omi, :saicv •M01A01 .to3 liounoo llnf aqi of papaemi0J aq 101.1eI o4gnd aqi Jo uogelljiget{aJ aqi awnlena of saopuaS ,Cpadold agelt.taH s Jstu j leuotleM qi!M 11.13u103.1SE UE Imp uepio f kg papuooas `iCffaD kg panoIAI •uMe.tpgltnn seen uotiotu anoge aql papuooas pun.tanout aqi Jo jenotdde aqi ql!M •2utplmq aqi le uo auo2 seq legf SutgliCJana pazuoglne seg jiounoo sigi imp si utajgoid alp Jo Ind imp pawls stapud uosjadl►ounoD
