REGULAR MEETING JULY $ 1974
<br />MEETING - RECONVENED (CONTINUED)
<br />Miss Virginia Guthrie, Consultant and member of the Board of Directors of the Civic Planning
<br />Association, wondered where the $12 million would be coming from for the Civic Center. Mr. Everit-
<br />stated that, hopefully, within a few weeks, more definite information would be available. He
<br />stated that there will be fund - raising drives, and the funds would be a combination of revenue
<br />sharing funds, general funds, hotel -motel tax funds, and general obligation and park funds.
<br />Councilman Miller felt that only generalized statements could be made on the cost at this time.
<br />Miss Guthrie wondered when the money would be available. Councilman Miller stated that it depende<
<br />on when a funding schedule was determined by Sollitt Construction Company. He explained that, on
<br />the general bond in the current budget, there is an item of approximately $250,000 that is paying
<br />off the general obligation bonds of 1965. He felt there should be no increase in the tax rate in
<br />order to pay off the bonds. Councilman Serge asked about the cost of furnishing the Civic Center.
<br />Mr. Everitt indicated that that information should be available in March of 1975 and would include
<br />those items that would not be "nailed down ", such as chairs, tables, etc. Councilman Parent
<br />indicated that he understood the need for the contract; however, he wondered if this would reduce
<br />the cost of the general contractor. Mr. Farrand stated that he felt this would result in a saving:
<br />He felt this type of advice was definitely needed. Also, this would permit other firms to bid on
<br />smaller portions of the contract.
<br />Councilman Miller made a motion to amend the resolution by the insertion of the words "the Civic
<br />Center Authority and" in the fifth line of the first paragraph after the words "has been approved
<br />by ", seconded by Councilman Parent. The motion carried. Councilman Miller made a motion that the
<br />resolution be adopted, as amended, seconded by Councilman Kopczynski. The resolution passed by a
<br />roll call vote of eight ayes (Councilmen Serge, Szymkowiak, Miller, Parent, Taylor, Kopczynski,
<br />Newburn and Nemeth) with Councilman Horvath absent.
