Parking Lot License Agreement (Bhola Singh) Mr. Buckenmeyer presented the Parking Lot License Agreement (Bhola Singh). Staff is working with a developer regarding the old VA building. Out of respect, we are not ready to unveil the project yet, but we want to enable the developer to move on with their next steps. This Agreement will grant the company a license to enter and use eighty (80) parking spaces in the Commission owned parking lot abutting the VA building to the west. This will give them the tools to continue into the next phase of their project. Commission approval is requested. President Jones opened the floor for public comment. No public comment was made.

Upon a motion by Secretary Phillips, seconded by Commissioner Monk, the motion carried unanimously, the Commission approved the Parking Lot License Agreement (Bhola Singh) submitted on Thursday, August 22, 2019. B. River East Development Area 1. Addendum to Development Agreement (Commerce Center Development LLC) Mr. Kain presented the Addendum to Development Agreement (Commerce Center Development LLC). This is an Addendum that clarifies the definition regarding a grocery store and pharmacy. The original Agreement with the Commerce Center had broad language regarding a grocery store and pharmacy. This clarifies what they need to contain. Staff has been working with the developer for quite sometime to agree on the definition. This does not change other terms to the Agreement. Commission approval is requested. President Jones opened the floor for public comment. No public comment was made. The floor was closed to public comment.
