buildings and a number of details were
not yet finalized. The Groundlease, the
Development Agreement and the
Easement documents all have been
finalized and are now available for the

time, Memorial Hospital will pay the

prior Agreement with Memorial that was
signed and recorded without completion
date and without exhibits.
Ms. Schwartz stated that she wasn't on
the Commission when the original

Anne Bruneel if there were any particular
issues that required special resolution
between the Commission and Memorial
Hospital in order for Memorial Health
Plex to present the contracts to the
Commission today.
Anne Brunel responded that the primary
blanks in the Amended and Restated
Agreement for the Lease and
Development of Real Property were
relative to the time of construction. At

as the Agreement was entered into in
December 1996 and the bonds weren't
sold until July 1997.

building was originally anticipated to be

floor has been added to the project that

education program and believes that the
program will provide a degree of
education for children in the community
that don't have availability to computers
in their schools.
Mr. Hunt asked how the computer
education facility integrates with the
medical facility. Mr. Bancroft stated that
Memorial Hospital's role is the health of
the community and by educating children,
in a broad sense, helps the community be
healthier.
Mrs. Kolata commented that the price per
square foot is the same as what was
originally proposed and was part of the
original Contract for Sale of Land with
Trammell Crow which is being replaced
by this Agreement. In the Agreement,
there is a payment due on an annual basis
which is a "common area" charge that is
on a graduated scale and will eventually
reach $150,000 a year from the year 2007
and thereafter.
There are a number of easements having
to do with foundations, elevators and
public access, etc. The City's time for
construction and completion of the
parking garage has been modified and is
anticipated to be completed in March of
1999. The public plaza is anticipated to
be completed in August of 1999; the
Memorial Health Plex is anticipated to be
completed in February of 2000.
