THE AVON THEATRE <br /> STAFF REPORT <br /> The building was reviewed by Staff, Timothy Klusczinski, Brad Dennis of Ziolkowski <br /> Construction,Fritz Herget of Arsee Engineers, with Bruce Burnett and Dave Wilcox <br /> Facilities managers for the Library and Tamara Nichol-Smith of DTSB. The building's <br /> exterior terra cotta appeared to be in fair to good condition on the second storey and <br /> capable of restoration—but dependent upon availability of funding. The first storey is <br /> covered in plywood the condition of the terra cotta according to the Library was that <br /> pieces were missing and the "store front"was not in good shape. The interior had been <br /> stripped out of all remnants of the theatre and used for storage. It appeared to be <br /> structurally sound and could be adaptively re-used—but again subject to a source of <br /> funding. <br /> The Commission may decide to pursue land marking for the Avon Theatre in its entirety <br /> or just for the preservation of the terra cotta facade which would then place the building <br /> under interim protection for six months or until a satisfactory solution could be found. <br /> I <br />
