• � ' e Hour•s Offic February 26, March 5 and 12, 1986 � March 18, 1986 His company is an agent for "American Red Ball" moving company. They also conduct warehousing operations at this site, which are not the problem. We agreed their truck parking was not allowed, and that they would move out at the termination of their lease five months from now. They have been there a year and one-half, and were told by Roberts representatives that they were allowed. Normally, if taken to court, a judge would give them a reasonable amount of time to move. Thus, we feel an agreement to move at the termination of their lease is reasonable. Mike Larson, representing the Welsh Company, (current owners of the property) agreed with this proposal. 9.

This would be a S25 million, four-story st�ucture t� be built across Te�minal Road in a manner similar to what w� hav� discus�ed in th� past. 'This would involve the vacation of Terminal Road �rom Walnut Stxeet to the west, and the vacation oF High�rest. This, too, has been previously r�vi.ew�:d and makes s�nse in terms of the consolida�ion of the property into a single structuxe. The Kalst�d building to the north of the main structures would be removed� and th�t sit� would be redeveloped for a new parking l�at �or�taining 1,340 cars. The siting of the new structure would require �he removal of 150 parking spac�s, giving us a net increase of 190 spac�s. We suggested that they ou�ht to consider build�.ng a taller structure, noting that the long horizontal mass of the existing structures would make this aesthetically �ppropri- ate (and desirable). Tom indicated he would pass that on to his colleagues.
