The key item on the Agency’s agenda is the construction of a new office building in downtown in the Redevelopment area. This will be a four-story building, the West Coast headquarters of Bally’s Fitness Company. All Agency Members have had a presentation on this previously with detailed renderings of the site plan as well as the financial details. Lisa Stipkovich, Executive Director of Community Development. She wanted to clarify that this agenda item states it is asking for approval of Phase III. She would like to delete that at this time and have the Agency only consider approving the basic concept drawings for Phase II and the Second Implementation Agreement for Phase II which is specifically regarding the Bally’s building. Staff would like to bring back Phase III when they have more information to share about the potential office uses. She will ask to amend her staff report and leave that portion that refers to the concept plans for Phase II. Chairman Daly. He surmised they are deleting the site plans for Phase III; Mrs. Stipkovich confirmed that was correct. ANAHEIM CIVIC CENTER, ANAHEIM REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OCTOBER 27, 1998 Chairman Daly.
