Background During the Citizen Partic.ipaticn meeting on August 18, 1977, a report was given on the balloting by the citizens for the proposed center site. The site selected is bounded by East Rosedale, Verbena, Veal and New York. During its meeting November 14, 1977, the Community Development Council accepted the citizens' recommendation as the site for the center. Since the action of the Community Development Council, the staff has received numerous calls from citizens who frequent a restaurant on the proposed site and they have expressed a strong desire for the restaurant to remain at its location on the corner of Veal and East Rosedale Streets. The staff has re-evaluated the proposed site for the center and finds that by using only the eastern portion of the proposed site (extending east from the east side cf the restaurant property) ; by closing a part of the 900 block of Verbena; and by acquiring the necessary property on the north side of Verbena, the proposed change can be satisfactorily accomplished. The alternative will require the land acquisition and relocation of twelve single family frame residences, one four unit apartment, one bail bond business and one substandard vacant commercial structure. Opposition is anticipated from one owner occupant who has stated that she will appear before City Council on Tuesday, December 20, 1977. The approximate cost for land acquisition and relocation will be $225,000 which is the same as the cost estimated for earlier relocation and acquisition including the restaurant property. This alternative proposal will comply with the citizen input on site selec- tion and meet the wishes of those desiring not to move the restaurant. If additional information is desired, it will be submitted upon request. Respectfully su mitted, OFFICIAL RE D . R, N. Line ITY SECRETARY City Manager FT WpaTN, TDt.
