In March 2012, the Redevelopment Commission entered into a binding Memorandum of Understanding ( "MOU ") with the Union Station Technology Center ( "USTC ") team. The MOU contemplated energy service upgrades to the USTC that would be aided by the use of $2.2 million of Airport Economic Development Area TIF funds. The TIF funds would pay for conduit and power grid extensions from the AEP substation on Main Street to the USTC as well as the purchase of power equipment to help provide power and other resources to the center. This Resolution and Addendum authorize the Board of Public Works to be the Commission's agent in contracting for infrastructure improvements and equipment for the first Phase of the USTC project. The total budget for all improvements, based upon the MOU, is $2.2 million dollars. A scope of work relative to this budget is being developed and bidding for the equipment purchase and installation will be working its way through the Board in July. Work is presently underway on the conduit extension component of this work from the substation north to South Street and in to the USTC. Staff requests favorable approval of Resolution 3052 and the Addendum. What We Do Today Makes A Difference!
