PATTERSON ZONING PETITION ZONING CHANGE TO PLANNING COMMISSION 00- REPORTS OF OFFICERS, COMMISSIONS, OR COMMITTEES: City Clerk Gair presented a Staff Report to request Council approval of a proposed agreement with Diamond International Corporation for computerized Election Tabulation in the upcoming April 13, 1982 election. The new procedure wilt reduce the number of pre- cincts needed as well as workers and costs. City Clerk Gair answered questions from the Council, including the procedures of the computerized tabula- tion system and the possibility of several other cities joining our City for this election in the Counting Center. It was moved and seconded to authorize the Mayor to execute an agreement with Diamond International Corporation in the amount of $5,045.72 for the April 13, 1982 election. M/S/C: AGUILAR/HOLMAN. There were no objections. 00- Mr. Kelty totd that he had requested proposals from firms regarding the feasibility of providing an auditorium and and historical center. The firm of EDCON INC. was chosen by Staff to be best for the job. The cost from the City to the firm will be $12,500. Staff requested Council approval of the firm EDCON INC. authorizing $12,500 for the study. Councilman Holman asked about the study and the time frame for the study. He was informed that the study would discuss the feasibility of establishing this center, how much it would cost and give options on how to pay for it. The study would be in three parts and would evaluate different alternatives. There is not enough time for this to be on the April ballot. Councilman King stated that he felt it was a lot of money for a study and since the City has a lot of money out for consultants in other areas right now, he would rather put the money, $12,500, into a holding account. Councilman McNeitt agreed with Councilman King. Councilman Aguilar stated that the City has already delayed too long on this issue, and he would like to get this project done before the cost increases by delaying it again. Councilman Holman commented that he felt the $12,500 was money well spent. Councilman King said that he felt the only way the City could pay for this would be from a grant from the Federal Government and the City needs to find out where these funds are available. He also does not feet it is appropriate at this time to ask the people to vote on this project.

That would entail this sort of study before we apply. He commented that people have come before this Council and have repeatedly been told Council is looking into the possibilities of a civic auditor- ium and museum. He felt that if we table this, we will be back to ground zero. Councilman McNeill stated that tic had asked Council to sec aside X amount of dollars and asked Staff to look into various kinds of possible loans. He comnented that we have a site, the Historical Society agreed was suitable, and a building, the community thought they wanted, for the auditorium that is already built. The next thing we need is to get someone to tell us how much it will cost to do the job and then go ahead and do it. He said that he had no objections to having studies made when they are necessary, but he felt that the Historical Society Building could have been included in the downtown study being done. He asked for an indication that the State will declare this building a historical site and also to find out if there is Federal Government funds or any other funds available since we are now 50,000 in population. He felt that the study would be throwing away $12,500. Councilman King stated that he appreciated Staff's report on the study, but he does not agree with the recommendation. He said that we have two sites available and if the people of the community or Historical Society don't want these sites they can have another choice, if the funds are available. Following discussion, it was moved and seconded to approve the contract with EDCON INC. to conduct this $12,500 study for the Civic Auditorium and Historical Center. M/S/C: HOLMAN/AGUILAR.
