Page 2 of 2 Odam Medical Group has purchased the property at 6014 Lakeland Ave. N. They propose to demolish the vacant Rostamo’s building and construct a new medical clinic and site improvements including parking lot and landscaping. The clinic would initially have one floor with the option to add second and third floors in future years. At its meeting on March 14, the Planning Commission held a public hearing and recommended approval. Recommend approval of the site and building plans including the Planning Commission’s findings and conditions. 5.3 The Council will consider a resolution to purchase furniture for the new police department facility and city administrative offices. Part of the Police Station project budget includes an allocation for purchasing new office furniture. The city’s capital building budget includes funds for replacing the existing city administrative office cubicles and furniture. By purchasing both the police and administrative furniture together, we get better prices. Recommend approval of the resolution authorizing these purchases. 5.4 The Council will consider a resolution approving plans and specifications and authorizing advertisement for bids for parking lot improvements at Grogan Park (the Community Center) and parking lot and dog park improvements at Bassett Creek Park. The parks and building capital funds include allocations for replacing the south parking lot at the Community Center, the parking lots at Bassett Creek Park and relocating and enhancing the dog park at Bassett Creek Park. Staff met with representatives of both watersheds to review the proposed plans. The parking lot at the Community Center requires administrative watershed approval prior to construction.
