<br /> 16 <br />the Visitors Center to be downtown. He said he would like to see the space used after <br />hours for community functions. He said he is a big fan of the CDC, and he does not see a <br />problem having them discuss the issue with the Visitors Center. <br /> <br /> Mr. Mark Shore, Executive Director of the Visitors Center, said that the Visitors <br />Center Board began looking at the space two years ago. He said in meeting with the <br />CDC everyone realized it was very late in the game as planning has been done for use of <br />the space. He said he is willing to work with CDC. He said he wants it to be a successful <br />place for residents as well. He said it is felt that it is vital for the Visitors Center to be on <br />the mall. He noted that they have proposed to be a tenant of the building from the <br />beginning. <br /> <br /> Mr. Norris referred to the Visitors Center in Knoxville, Tennessee, suggested that <br />research be done on spaces that present vibrant spaces. He asked what guarantees do we <br />have that the space will be well used. <br /> <br /> Mr. Shore said the Visitors Center is equally funded by the City and County and <br />they also have community partners. He said the goal is to make people aware of those <br />partners. He said he sees it as an obligation to bring people in to help defray the cost of <br />local needs. <br /> <br /> Ms. Hamilton said she loves CDC, but is not wedded to that being an element in <br />the Transit Center. She said she is wedded to it being a lively space and a destination <br />used by residents and visitors. She said that is the end she wants to see achieved. <br /> <br /> Mr. Lynch said there are two issues: the programming and outreach that the <br />Visitors Center will do and the café space. He said it should be offered to CDC and they <br />should be given the first right of refusal. <br /> <br /> Mr. Norris noted that the café space rent is not on tonight’s agenda. <br /> <br /> Mr. O’Connell noted that a lot of work has been done on the space. <br /> <br /> The motion to defer was defeated by the following vote. Ayes: Mr. Lynch. <br />Noes: Dr. Brown, Ms. Hamilton, Mr. Norris, Mr. Taliaferro. <br /> <br /> The Resolution Authorizing the two leases for Transit Center by the Visitors <br />Center was approved by the following vote. Ayes: Dr. Brown, Ms. Hamilton, Mr. <br />Norris, Mr. Taliaferro. Noes: Mr. Lynch. <br /> <br /> BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Charlottesville, Virginia that <br />this Council hereby authorizes the Mayor to sign the following documents, in form <br />approved by the City Attorney: <br /> <br />(1) Lease Agreement between the City of Charlottesville (“City”), as <br />Landlord, and the Charlottesville Albemarle Convention and Visitor <br />Bureau (CACVB), as Tenant, for space in the City Transit Center <br />building at 610 East Main Street for use as the Downtown Visitors <br />Center; and <br /> <br />(2) Lease Agreement between the City of Charlottesville (“City”), as <br />Landlord, and the Charlottesville Albemarle Convention and Visitor <br />Bureau (CACVB), as Tenant, for space in the City Transit Center <br />building at 610 East Main Street for use as CACVB Administrative Offices. <br /> <br />PUBLIC <br /> <br /> There were no matters by the public <br /> <br />OTHER BUSINESS <br /> <br />APPOINTMENTS <br />: BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS <br /> <br />
