REVIEW OF Executive Director Birkelo informed the Board that, as preparation for STATUS OF this item he had previously forwarded a summary of the recently published SECOND RE- convention center report that was prepared for the County and a number of DEVELOPMENT cities that joined in that particular effort. It gives you the type of PROJECT: facility which the consultant thinks might be appropriate for San Mateo County, and you will see that the preliminary proposel from Chiltern Development Company falls fairly close to the criteria and specifications that were suggested by the consultant. As I indicated to this Board earlier, we did want to look at the feasibility of a second redevelopment project in the development area as a possible funding vehicle for a conference center if, in fact, you finally decide that is the way you want to go. Mr. Birkelo reminded the Board that it had authorized up to $10,000 ..... be spent for consulting services to do the original feasibility boundary study and report back as to whether or not to proceed and actually establish a second redevelopment project. REVIEW OF Mr. Birkelo also reported that the firm of Katz~ Hollis & Associates ___STATUS OF had been selected to do the initial feasibility, and we are working ~ECOND RE- on an .agreement with them that would allow us, if in fact we decide )EVELOPMENT to proceed beyond that point, to work width them all the way through 2ROJECT: the establishment of the project itself. After further input, Mr. Birkelo asked for direction from the Board before proceeding further, He stated that perhaps we should talk to the County and other directly benefitted public agencies in our neighborhood as to the possibility of joint cooperation in such type of project. Chairman Haffey stated that, for the Board's benefit, he talked to Mr. Steen of the Convention and Visitors Bureau and during their discussion they found it to be desirable that maybe the County Board of Supervisors become involved, or at least the Chairman informed of what was taking place. Mr, Steen expressed his extreme interest in becoming involved, and I think it is appropriate for the Board to discuss this matter and decide whether it is a valuable project or not, Discussion followed concerning whether or not to proceed with the project. It was the concensus of the Board to proceed, keeping the Board updated of the progress.
