12 1 John Roberts said this documentis not binding on the Countyin any wayexcept due 2 diligence, confidentiality and representations and warranties. He said signing this document 3 means the County executes the document and can still walk away in the event that Main Street 4 collapses or the deal with the owner collapses. 5 Commissioner Price asked if the reference on thenext pageis for interior and exterior 6 design work. 7 Jeff Thompson said that is for site work and the exterior ofthebuilding. 8 Commissioner Price asked who will maintain the landscapingafter the initial 9 construction. 10 Jeff Thompson said Orange County will be a condominium interest owner. He said a 11 management company will be formulated, and that entity will maintain the exterior. 12 Commissioner Price asked for clarification onhow they are dealing with the parking 13 deck. 14 Jeff Thompson said that is a negotiating point but not a selling point. 15 John Roberts said that is a very fluid and ongoing discussion at this time. 16 Commissioner Gordon referred to paragraph Sonpage 11. She said her major concern 17 is whether the Board should agree to consider allowing the parking spaces to be used this way. 18 She said the other concern is that there is a fairly major omission regarding who will be 19 using the parking spaces. She said thisshould be specified. She said there are also a couple 20 of grammatical errors. 21 John Roberts said Main Street is not willing to negotiate on whether the County 22 considers allowing the use of the spaces in the off hours of the library. He said it is crucial to 23 the business plan of this development that thedeveloper hasaccess to these spaces. He said 24 he will clarify who will use these spaces during the off hours. 25 John Roberts saidchanging the wording of this could pose problems in the future for the 26 final contract documents. He said Main Street needs access to these spaces when the County 27 is not using them. 28 Commissioner Gordon asked for the name of the user. 29 John Roberts saidhe believes this will be the public. He said the rules and regulations 30 for the parking structure will be established by Main Street in those off hours. 31 Commissioner Gordon said it sounds like the County is being steered in the direction of 32 not changing that, but she would like to see the grammar corrected. 33 Chair Jacobs askedif the off hour parking will be controlled by the developer but Orange 34 County would be paying for the spaces. 35 John Roberts said this is part of theshared value that was presented to the Board. He 36 said the County will not pay for use of those spaces for a full 24 hour period. He said there is 37 some description of shared value considerations in this document, and this will be in the final 38 document as well. 39 40 A motion was made by Commissioner Pelissier,seconded by Commissioner Price to 41 authorize theChair to execute a Letter of Intent with regard to the Southern Branch Library 42 upon the approval of the County Attorneyand to authorize the County Attorney to make non- 43 substantive grammatical changes to the document. 44 45 John Roberts asked the Board to forward any noted typos and grammatical errors. 46 Commissioner Gordon asked if the public will be identified as the user of the parking. 47 John Roberts said he will identify who needs to be identified here. 48 49 VOTE: UNANIMOUS 50
