This approximately 10 <br /> acre site is now owned by the Commission and this is the first step in being able to put it <br /> through the disposition process and eventually sell it. <br /> The cost for Danch services is $18,800 with filing fees and utility releases expected to be <br /> $3,350 for a total of$22,150. A title insurance policy is requested to insure the Commission <br /> has clean title to all parcels and there are no outstanding liens or obligations. Title insurance <br /> is expected to cost approximately $1,100. Staff requests approval of these proposals for a <br /> not to exceed amount of$25,000. <br /> Upon a motion by Ms. Schey, seconded by Mr. Inks and unanimously carried, the <br /> Commission approved the professional services proposal in Ignition Park South for <br /> 1 boundary survey; rezoning and replat; utility, street, and alley vacation services in a not-to- <br /> '` exceed amount of$25,000. <br /> (2) Release of Development Agreement with Great Lakes Capital (LaSalle Hotel) <br /> Mr. Fielding noted the project is now a priority as the Hoffman Hotel located next door is <br /> under construction and it would be better if both buildings are under construction at the <br /> same time to avoid having the block being impacted for three years. The current bid winner, <br /> Great Lakes Capital, is unable to adhere to the requested timing and has agreed to withdraw. <br /> Upon a motion by Mr. Varner, seconded by Ms. Schey and unanimously carried, the <br /> Commission approved the release of Development Agreement for LaSalle Hotel with Great <br /> Lakes Capital. <br /> (3) Development Agreement with RealAmerica for LaSalle Hotel <br /> Mr. Fielding stated the development agreement with RealAmerica includes the same terms <br /> and conditions as the Great Lakes Capital development agreement with the exception of <br /> dates and the clarification of the number parking spaces. <br /> Mr. Jeff Ryan, Development Associate for RealAmerica, gave an overview of the <br /> company's background including the fact the architectural and construction management <br /> services are provided internally. <br /> 3 <br />
