Revitalization Commission <br />Minutes <br />May 11, 2022 <br />Page 2 of 7 <br />Chair Adler introduced new commissioner Clif Harald. Commissioner Harald said he <br />has extensive background in economic development and sustainable economic <br />vitality. Councilmember Leh and Commissioners welcomed Clif. <br />Councilmember Leh said Council cannot be a part of Redtail Ridge discussions as this <br />is a quasi judicial matter. Council looks forward to upcoming visioning session and <br />discussing areas of joint interest. <br />Facade Improvement Program Outreach <br />Director Pierce noted the URA map has been updated with Commissioner names <br />representing each zone for fagade improvement outreach. EV Specialist Brown has <br />been meeting with businesses and is available to meet with Commissioners who <br />would like assistance regarding outreach. Commissioner Harald may be able to help <br />with Lexi's area while she is out on maternity. Staff continues to receive new interest <br />and program applications. <br />Business Matters of Commission: <br />• Facade Improvement Program Application: 12Degree Brewing (a-)- 820 Main <br />Street <br />EV Specialist Brown reviewed the 12Degree Brewing application with the LRC. <br />The application is complete, and staff determined the request could be <br />approved administratively without Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) <br />subcommittee review. The cost of improvements is $9,500 which would be <br />100% reimbursable by the program. Proposed improvements include: <br />o Replace outdoor wooden bench seating area; <br />o Install new blade sign; and <br />o Restore damaged concrete at entrance. <br />Staff recommends approval of the application. Commissioner Smith asked if, <br />due to market conditions, we would like to budget an additional 10% in <br />contingency. Director Pierce said the agreement provides some flexibility. For <br />instance, if the project is under $15,000 it is reimbursable at 100%. If cost <br />increases bump an applicant into the next level, staff will alert the LRC. <br />Chair Adler called for public comment. At this time the outreach materials are <br />not available in language other than English. There was a suggestion to <br />Agenda Packet P. 4 <br />
