The city has been working on property negotiations for several years and paid $70,000 for the property. They plan a baseball complex with eventually a bridge, footpaths and picnic areas. The council said it was pleased with the acquistion especially since a recent survey revealed a high number of residents wanted to see more ballfields and youth recreation areas. In other items, the council tabled a request from a developer who is trying to renovate the Motel on 500 South Main to have a double building permit fee waived. Since the property had been condemned, the council was not sure what actions it wanted to take to help the developer. Among problems with renovating the old motel is that the developer would like to use it for apartments. The council noted that apartments are not currently allowed in the commerical zone. However, most of the motels on Main Street have become apartment rental units. The developer said he only had $10,000 to renovate the structure and there is a lot of work needed. The council said they wanted someone to clean up the property and so they would look at options to work with the developer. The council also discussed a proposal to only read electric meters quarterly.
