M/S Filippi/Saye: To recommend that the Carrington Hall Committee <br /> recommend to the Redevelopment Agency that they fund <br /> a structural study of Carrington Hall costing <br /> approximately$25,000.00 to be done by DES, Inc. <br /> Kent Brown of DES, Inc. stated a structural study would take 4-5 weeks to <br /> complete and another 2-3 weeks to finalize the report. He indicated the <br /> Sequoia Union High School District had DES, Inc. complete a preliminary <br /> report one year ago to ensure the building conformed to State building codes <br /> and the building was deemed suitable for occupancy. <br /> Motion passed. <br /> ITEM 4-JOE MARCHI-REPORT ON LECTURE SERIES <br /> The Commissioners received a report from Joe Marchi which indicated that <br /> the Speaker Series co-sponsored by the Commission, netted a profit of <br /> $1,432.00 of which 50% belongs to the Commission. Mr. Marchi stated in his <br /> letter that he would like to come to a future meeting to discuss and evaluate <br /> the series. Superintendent Hartman will provide the balance of the John <br /> Raitt fund for the Commissioners at the next meeting. <br /> ITEM 5 -ROSINE BENA- BALLET PROGRAM <br /> This matter was deferred until later in the evening. <br /> ITEM 6-BUDGET <br /> Commissioners Ball and Filippi met with Superintendent Hartman three <br /> weeks ago to review the Commission's budget and options available. <br /> Commissioner Filippi explained the various options they discussed: <br /> 1.) Expand the venue of the $15,000.00 currently going for Fox Theater <br /> productions. It costs an average of $900.00 more to have an event at the Fox <br /> Theater than at other venues. The Commissioners would like the funds <br /> available to be used at all venues in the city. <br /> 2.) Have the Cultural Commission oversee the entire cultural budget of <br /> $45,000.00 ($30,000 & $15,000) that goes to one venue. <br /> A draft of the two proposals was formulated to the City Council for the <br /> Commissioners' review. The Commissioners reviewed the draft and had <br /> various comments. Commissioner Piulle asked if the $14,000.00 for the <br /> public art acquisition for the new Red Morton Center should be a separate <br /> item because it is a one-time specialty budget item which inflates the <br /> Commission's budget. She explained she would rather take the $1,000.00 <br />
