you  mayor start off with the agenda for April   first got uh three proclamations on the first  page five people already signed up for the public   agenda uh that's all I have on page pages one  and two on page three we have two items that are   coming back to you you asked those to be placed  on the April 1 agenda they are lease extensions   for two spaces in our property North me we are  still negotiating the lease terms with those   uh tenants so we asked the counil to table this  and uh we'll bring them back if when we can reach   acceptable terms do you know about how long uh  their extensions only go into April so they're GNA   we're g to have everyone's going to have to make  decisions fairly quickly about the leasee terms   one's terminates on April 20th the other  on April 30th so we will have the formal   motion to table this yes at the council  meeting on Tuesday correct both of those items I'm sorry that's right because one has 307 and 309 the second item um is an appeal of a  historic preservation board decision regarding   the demolition of a duplex uh North Park Drive  um this is an appeal actually filed by mabcd due   to the condition of the property U

process to consider the placement of the   Crown Uptown Theater on the witto register of  historic places the initiation was started by   the historic preservation board no in this case  the we were asked by council member Johnson to   put to bring something forward this would have  the council initiate the process um has this   happened before I can't remember in my time that  we've initiated an action like this the ordinance   really allows it to for private property to  only come three one of three ways Council can   initiate it the historic preservation board can  initiate it or the property owner or I say there   is a fourth adjacent Property Owners or property  ordinance in the area if they have the approval   of the property owner could also file how long  all your all this is is to start the process not   you'll eventually if if there's a recommendation  to place it on the um register then it will come   to you for final approval it'll be reviewed by  the historic president reservation board first   okay how about how long does that process take  um I can't tell you for sure um I think I've   indicated to you we've hired a consultant to  review the application

the old powdered wig  or something I'll do that that's worth the   picture but anyway I I think if I remember  correctly without pulling the report this   person is not a resident so there's not  a
