Finance Committee - 08/19/2020 Page 14

Mayor Donchess

I’m sure there would be, | mean we’d have to think about. But for example there’s a little park you Know around
the oval where we closed off part of the oval with the unnecessary sort of lanes over there. That could be
duplicated on the other end of the Court House Oval. On the south end there’s a similar configuration down
there. You know, I’m sure we could find a use for them. Alderwoman Kelly do you have another follow up.

Alderwoman Kelly

Yeah I’m not sure that’s it is a question, it is just sort of acomment. So again | reiterate that | think this project
has been great. | am just concerned that it is $30 something thousand for 200 linear feet and if we decide to
then buy the rest, we are looking at 2,200 square feet that we would need to fund next year and likely will not
have GOFERR to cover that. So | just want to make sure that as we are thinking about this, we are being
thoughtful about what would come down to the City as an expense if we decide to go forward with this next
year.

Mayor Donchess

Did Alderman O’Brien raise his hand?
Alderman O’Brien

| did, but I'll yield to Alderman Klee and then you may call me afterwards, please.

Mayor Donchess

Alderwoman Klee?
Alderman Klee

Thank you, Mr. Mayor. | have a question as much as | have a comment. | understand what the two previous
Alderwoman have commented as far as the cost of hitting this next year. But this would not then turn into an
annual cost, other than if the possibility of us having to put them out. This would be a one and done cost as far
as the purchasing of these items. So keeping that in mind it would be possible if we decided that we were just
going to do Main Street and maybe some of them rather than expanding beyond the current 2,400 feet that we
are doing now. Because you are talking about taking these 200 and adding them to the 2,400, is that correct to
do a sample so then next year if we bought it, we could buy just maybe 2,200 feet or less, depending upon
how we wanted to do this. And then the following year we don’t have to buy them because we already have it.
So it’s not like this is going to become an annual cost, unlike if we decided to rent these as we are doing now,
then it becomes an annual cost and so on. Am | correct on this thinking?

Mayor Donchess

Yes.

Alderman Klee

Thank you very much and thank you Alderman O’Brien.
