Reconvene into open session and possibly take action on those inatters discussed in <br />Executive Session. <br />Mayor Hashmi reconvened City Council into open session at 7:52 p.m. and said that <br />Council was going to discuss item 22 a. in open session. Andy Faskin, residing at 4095 Sunset <br />View said he represented the RAM Foundation and they were trying to help the Health <br />Department and New Hope Shelter get into a new facility. Mr. Faskin said his understanding <br />was that the City was interested in helping purchasing a building, but the County was not and <br />that RAM Foundation would like to step in and help. Mr. Faskin told the Council they were <br />flexible as to how to set it up. Mayor Hashmi asked Mrs. Prestridge about the estimated cost of <br />rehabilitation of the building. She informed the Council she had met with Bobby Smallwood and <br />the bid was $107,500 but that they could cut some expenses reducing it to $100,000. Mrs. <br />Prestridge said the cost of the building was $200,000. Council Member Drake said she would <br />first like to see an appraisal of the building. Council Member Grossnickle asked if grants had <br />been pursued and Mr. Faskins said they were working on options. City Council Members <br />expressed appreciation to Mr. Faskins and decided to postpone this item to a future meeting <br />pending additional information. <br />24.
