DONALD RYE, PLANNING DIRECTOR
AGENDA ITEM:
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING
THE PAYMENT OF FAc;ADE IMPROVEMENT FUNDS TO
O'MALLEY'S ON MAIN, INC.
DISCUSSION:
History In 2002, the City Council authorized the use of up to $150,000
from Downtown TIP Account funds to fund a fayade improvement
program for the area covered by the Downtown zoning district. An
additional $100,000 was authorized in 2003. Since then, staff has
worked with several Downtown businesses to implement the fayade
improvement program. The use of these funds has already been
approved for several Downtown businesses (Little Lakers Montessori,
Speiker building, The Hair Mate/Kapaun Realty buildings, Fongs,
Viking Liquor, Ace Hardware and Extra Innings). The amounts
dedicated to each project total $170,086. This leaves a balance of
$79,914 that is available for fayade improvements. If this request for
$25,000 is approved, the balance available will be reduced to $54,914.
Current Circumstances Shelby Armit on behalf of O'Malley's on Main
has submitted an application for assistance from the fayade
improvement program. The estimated total cost of the project is
$67,760. Program guidelines call for reimbursement of half the cost of
the improvement up to a maximum of $25,000. In this case, half the
project cost is $33,880 so the maximum reimbursement would be
$25,000.
Staff has reviewed the plans for the project and has determined the
proposed improvements will meet the design criteria contained in the
Downtown zoning district and are therefore eligible for fayade
improvement funds. The project includes removal of the existing
building facade of the building and replacement with cultured field
stone below the windows and board and battens above the window.
The original twin gable roofline will also be restored. New signage and
lighting will also be provided.
The 2020 Vision and Strategic Plan contains a Vision Element called
Downtown Redevelopment. The second item in this element is

ALTERNATIVES:
RECOMMENDED
MOTION:
REVIEWED BY:
"Implement partnering program with Downtown businesses to
facilitate building fayade improvements." The Tactical Action Plan for
2004 to 2008 has two components directly related to this element. One
is to "Identify businesses for fa~ade improvement" and the other is to
"Work with identified businesses to complete fa~ade improvements."
Clearly, the requested action in this case is directly related to, and in
support of, these elements.
Issues The primary issue here is whether the City Council wishes to
provide the requested assistance. As noted above, the project is
consistent with the 2020 Vision and Strategic Plan and complies with
design guidelines for the Downtown. Staff would recommend that,
where the plans call for either wood or Hardie-Board, the Hardie
Board should be required as it is a more durable product. The Council
recently approved an amendment to the zoning ordinance that permits
materials such as Hardie-Board to be classified as Class lA materials
and to be used in conjunction with Class I materials. In this case,
Class I materials will comprise 57% of the building face with the
remainder Hardie-Board. These percentages are in compliance with
the new amendment.
Staff is also of the opinion that some kind of time limit should be
imposed on this and any other future projects, beyond which the right
to receive reimbursement would be forfeited. Staff has another
application pending and inquiries from two other Downtown
businesses about participation in the program so we believe the
construction process should be expedited.
Conclusion Staff has concluded the project for which assistance has
been requested meets the applicable criteria and recommends approval
of the requested funding.
The City Council has the following alternatives:
1. Approve the funding assistance as requested.
2. Approve a level of funding assistance different than the level
requested.
3. Deny the request for funding assistance.
4. Continue this case to a date certain.

improvement funds to 'Malley's on Main, Inc.
