Downtown Redlands Urban Design Plan - Following Marc Futterman's
Downtown Redlands report and recommendations to the City Council on May
7, 2002, the Council directed staff to develop Statements of Qualifications from
urban design and financial consultants on or before the first meeting in June.
The consultant would be tasked to perform the following: (1) design a set of
alternative layouts for a hotel/parking structure and the related developments
within the core area of downtown; (2) evaluate financial and economic aspects
and prepare a program of public and private funding and financing for the core-
block development; and (3) review and prepare proposals for the assembly of
properties and property owners' participation in the core-area development.
Executive Director Davidson explained the work plan developed for the
Agency's consideration. Mrs. Gilbreath stated she could not support this item
because she opposed paying $25,000.00 for appraisals with a short life. Mr.
Harrison moved to approve a professional design and consulting services
contract for the Downtown Redlands Urban Design Plan to Marc Futterman
and Associates, Inc., in accordance with its proposal in an amount not to
exceed $10,000.00. Motion seconded by Mr. Haws and carried with Mrs.
Gilbreath voting NO. Mr. Harrison moved to authorize staff to obtain property
appraisals for potential development sites located in the Downtown area and
appropriate an amount not exceed $25,000.00 to complete this work. Motion
seconded by Mr. Haws and carried with Mrs. Gilbreath voting NO.
