<br />20. On Land Use, are the proposers to assume that the City will not want the variances or would <br />variances be possible? <br />None of us can speak for the Commission and what they would ultimately approve, but if <br />it is a creative idea that truly benefitted the City, they would probably be very willing to <br />think about alternatives. <br /> <br />21. Will the minutes and sign-in sheets be published? <br />Yes, they will be posted on www.demandstar.comlf you are not familiar with it, you <br />don't have to pay to get this information, though you think so when you sign on to <br />retrieve it. Keep trying because you don't have to pay. <br /> <br />22. You are saying that the City will pay for the Parking Garage, the Park, and the Retail? <br />Yes, but just the retail in the Parking Garage, not the retail in the Lifestyle Center. <br /> <br />23. And so the Aquarium part, the proposer has to get our own finances for that? <br />Correct, everything on the leased property would be the responsibility of the proposer. <br /> <br />24. Have there been thoughts on the infrastructure going into the garage? <br />It is our intent that the successful proposer will give us a construction contract and that <br />will include all utilities. If you break out the utilities, we will look at that separately <br />because that is a cost any proposer would incur. <br /> <br />25. I was referring to the financing in regards to the utilities, or technical infrastructure that <br />specifically goes to parking garage, or the elements that the City has funded. <br />For the City's portion, we pay for the utilities. That is part of our construction process. <br /> <br />26. Have there been any thought as to the access to and from the site? <br />Absolutely. We will work with you and FDOT to ensure that any access. that <br />compliments the proposed layout is granted. We do have several approved driveway <br />cuts already, obviously from the existing facilities, and so we see no reason that those <br />driveway cuts would not be continued. It could be a surprise if the proposer comes in <br />and says that they can design it exactly to match the existing openings, but that is our <br />first, best approach. I am guessing you are going to want to do something differently. <br />We feel within reason that we can work with FDOT and get approval that compliments <br />the design, and we don't see that as solely your responsibility. Now, if you have a major <br />entrance and exit 20-feet back from the end of the radius or PT on Collins, no, we are <br />not going to try to fight for that for you, but anything else that is reasonable, we will <br />work with you. <br /> <br />Everyone also needs to fill out a registration form, which was passed around. Only one <br />proposer per firm needs to fill it out. To clarify, if there are any subs here, we are <br />dealing with only one entity. Answers to these questions, as well as the sign-in sheet, will <br />be posted on www.demandstar.com. If you have any follow-up questions please do them <br />by em ail torconner@sibfl.net. and then we will respond to them and post them on <br />Demand Star. <br /> <br />The mandatory Pre-Submittal Conference was concluded at 10:35 a.m. <br /> <br />Mandatory Pre-Submittal Conference QA 101510 (2) <br /> <br />Page 5 of 5 <br />
