  1. Indoor Facility Informational MeetingFeb 13, 2014

  2. Background • The Club has been putting money aside for nearly 15 years for an opportunity such as this… • A year ago, we approached the Quarry Church that purchased the old lumber yard property about using one of their pole barns. Due to costs of what would be needed to bring the structure to code we abandoned the idea in early fall of last year. • Soon after, we contacted the City about the possible use of the old bowling alley that has been sitting empty for the past 7 years.

  3. What have we done to date? • On 11/25/13, the City Council voted to allow the city staff to work with us to see if this project could be viable. • The Club hired Mahler & Associates Architecture to assist with this project. They worked on the STMA facility and were recommended to us. • On Dec 12th we hired Vieau Associates, INC through Mahler to complete the required asbestos & regulated waste report for the building…basically testing for mold and asbestos. • Report came back on Dec 20th with findings of mold and some asbestos in the mastic under the tile in the building and the carpet in the old restaurant area.

  4. What have we done to date? • Our lead architectural engineer, Graeme Mahler put together a remediation plan for the asbestos and mold which we submitted to the City for approval. • City approved our remediation plan on Monday Jan 27th, 2014. • Met with the city Jan 29th to go over initial language of the possible lease. • Mahler & Associates were given the go-ahead to start writing the report to show how we will be meeting building codes and overall use plan of the building on Jan 30th. • With positive feedback from the City Economic Development Authority (EDA), the club has purchased used artificial turf for the facility.

  5. What is Next? • Once completed by Graeme, submit final work plan for approval from the City. • Continue to work with the City on lease language. • Get on the City Council agenda for Feb 24th for them to vote on the lease. (10yr with opt out option for City at 5yrs) • March 1st lease would start if approved by City. • Immediately get the remediation work completed. • Complete leases with sub-tenants • After remediation, start demolition and construction. • Will have soccer space completed and ready to go for Late Fall training.

  6. Costs and ways to help pay… • We are estimating this project will cost approximately $60,000-$65,000 utilizing many hours of volunteers. • We do expect to raise fees by $50 per competitive player and $5-10 per Rec player to help pay operating costs. • Each Competitive team would get approximately 100 hours of time during the Winter months (Oct 01 – Mar 31) • Additional time at $25 per hour • Will provide Rec players free training during the Winter months. • We have one other local soccer club is very interested in renting space for Winter training. • Other soccer clubs and other local sports clubs may also rent space.

  7. Costs and ways to help pay… • Sub-tenants - rent could help off set costs: • Possibility there to sub-lease the old bar and restaurant areas out. • We have been working with someone on possibly leasing both the spaces out. • Could be rented out for birthday parties, etc. • Businesses to donate $ or materials, also will be selling banner space in the facility.
