As I <br />indicated in our phone conversation, my time frame for the analysis of this <br />project is rather short so 1 have enclosed some of the material that defines <br />the scope and objectives of this project. <br />Last month a review panel recommended that Marion County and the <br />Transit Dist~ict begin negotiations with a development team headed up by <br />Dan Berrey of Certified Property Management Co. of Salem. Mr. Berrey <br />was the suocessful respondent to an RFP. His development team <br />i~cludes Arbudcle/Costic Architects and Pence/Kelly Construction. His <br />interim role is to act as project manager although a contract has not yet <br />been signed. <br />Marion County's key objective in this project is to oonstruct a new office <br />oomplex to replace the aging Se~ator Building and provide new office <br />space for future growth. Marion County has entered into a tentative <br />partnership to jointly redevelop the Sena#or Blodc. The district is in need <br />of a new transit oenter and has acquired tentative FTA approval for $7 <br />million in federal funding to oonstruct the center on the Senator Blodc. <br />After two bond failures, the county has no funding for a new offioe <br />building. Our only resouroes are the property assets we have on the <br />blodc, a$3.7 million grant request pending with Senator Hatfield and <br />some transfer funds from the Transit District as they share in the cost of <br />the project. . <br />ivu ~~gn ~treet Nt, Koom 5321 .
