The contract amendment under consideration would get the city through to bid documents. Work involves: White Street/Williston Road intersection Hinesburg Road/Market Street Williston Road and Mary Street Windjammer/Doubletree entrances Ms. Hinds said the city doesn't have to lay out any money until costs get beyond the $1,000,000 mark. After that, city-matching funds can take many forms: TIF, impact fees, etc. Mr. Condos advised that recent legislation means there will be only 2 TIF's per year issued for 5 years. Mr. Smith addressed the issue of how wide the discussion on the Police Station will be and felt that it should include this project as well. Mr. O'Rourke felt people have to know the plans for the City Center including a rough build-out figure.
