Mayor Bacon called the meeting to order and gave a brief overview of the status of the
downtown project. Mayor Bacon stated since we have been unable to resolve parking
issues with the First Baptist Church and the plans had been so revised and the financial
terms so impacted, as a result the deal with CORO was unacceptable. Robert Thorne of
the Facility Group presented several proposed alternative concepts. A question and
answer session followed. Mayor Bacon encouraged the attendees to review the ideas and
suggestions presented in preparation for future discussions.
