So the motion would need to address itself what if the lease where not renewed by either side, who would then be responsible for whatever rent would be to left on the remodeling. Howard asked if some of the rent had been deferred last year? Asti-Caranci stated that when the city bought the property and converted from the house to the Chamber offices, the Chamber fixed the house to be offices and the rent was offset by that construction costs. In the original agreement the rent was $450 but there were other tenants in the building to help with the rent. Sackett moved and Carnival seconded that City Council approve the funding of the remodeling project for the Louisville Chamber up to $3,700 through rent abatement, in the event that the Chamber decides not to renew their lease for another year the rent abatement would not continue. Davidson moved to amend the motion to state that the Chamber and the City would split the cost of the remodeling, seconded Hornbostel. Motion was defeated 3-4. Vote was taken on the original motion at this time. Motion passed 7-0 OTHER Marschner informed the Council that the grant for the elevator has been awarded to the City in the amount of $25,000. Hopefully the elevator would be in around mid October. Davidson stated that at the last meeting it was discussed to appoint a sub-committee to develop a water policy for the city and since then I believe the Mayor has done that. Mayor Fauson stated he would like to appoint Tom Davidson, himself and Tom Phare to the sub- committee to develop the water policy. 12
