6) Quil Ceda Place Retail Center- T.I. Budget (Handout)
-Quil Ceda Village Overflow parking lot Les Parks
Discussion: FYI. Tenant improvement budget has fallen short of their goal.
Hoping for Lease income to come in and help cover costs. This has not occurred yet. Originally, tenant improvements should have cost about $728,000. Some leases have been developed that require the T.I. to pay all costs. We have about a $212,000 shortage of funds plus the parking lot of $27,000 and contingency funds, for a total need of an additional $325,000.00.
Lease has not been signed for M, N, O & P but an expectation of a lease to be signed is expected to come soon. One tenant’s bid has come in over the allowance of $90,000.
Tenant needs an additional $38,000 before work can be completed.
Proceed with parking lot and come back with overall budget.

-Phone Bank/Marysville School District-BOD appropriation $13,000.
Quil Ceda Village must go out to bid, requesting that the board of directors appropriate the funding for this.
Cal Taylor makes a motion to take the necessary steps to install the phone bank and request that the BOD fund this project.
PUT THIS ON THE AGENDA FOR DECEMBER 31, 2002 SPECIAL BOARD MEETING.
