He went through a number of suggested wording changes for the document. Councilmember Stolzmann stated the discussion should be more of when to use this rather than what the criteria are She suggested the number of years in the subsidy should tie to the end date of the URA in 2033 Mayor Muckle and Councilmember Loo agreed Councilmember Loo stated there should be enough flexibility in the document to react to a good application She agreed with Councilmember Leh that the objectives should read "two or more " Councilmember Stolzmann stated the criteria #3 about needing the funding to complete the project should be removed or better defined as it is too broad as written There was consensus on keeping the 50% five year and 90% 10 year language with incorporating the end date and on the requirement and that the project must meet at least two objectives Councilmember Maloney suggested including flexibility by adding some language to "address each of these, if applicable " Councilmember Leh would like to add something that tells an applicant how many of the objections the must meet and they don't have to meet all of them This gives Council flexibility and gives the applicant some idea of what they need to do Councilmember Loo likes language giving specific information such as "two or more" must be met; it is more clear than "if applicable " Mayor Muckle agreed Members agreed to use the language "must meet three or more objectives " There was no consensus at this time regarding changes to the historic preservation language Staff will bring a new draft back to the June 11 meeting DISCUSSION/DIRECTION/ACTION — APPOINTMENTS TO REVITALIZATION COMMISSION FOR A CURRENT VACANCY AND A POSITION TO BE VACANT AS OF JULY 1 Muth stated that at the May 21 City Council meeting, the Council decided to move forward with filling vacancies on the Revitalization Commission (LRC) The LRC currently has one vacancy from May and a second seat will be open as of July 1 If Council would like to consider the applicants who interviewed in February, there are five applicants who interviewed who were not appointed to the LRC or another board at that time
