EXHIBIT "A"
Civic Center Master Plan Revisions
1. Demolition of the 18,3000 square foot City Hall Building, due to structural
and other code considerations, and development of a new one-story 42,455
square foot City Hall Building, including new Council Chambers, in its place.
The existing Council Chambers occupying the southern portion of the Public
Services Building would be reconfigured and reconstructed to facilitate the
conversion of the Council Chambers to office space. The replication of the
main entry element of the City Hall Building is a proposed element of the new
building in order to maintain the character of the building in accordance with
the adopted Master Plan.

would be retained and a passenger drop-offi'pick-up area would be provided.
