Attending: Jim Slotta, Kathleen Butler, Mark Hoskin, Dave Jorschumb, George Pond, Wes Ashley, Helen Kuykendall

1. January 19, 2006 Minutes were approved.
2. Kathleen distributed financial statement for board review. It was agreed to transfer costs originally pledged by Linda R. Zinn to Angel Pride.
3. Matt, Sales Representative for Opus/Pinnacle, briefed the board on the status of the residential development. The sales of the property was finalized on January 3, and excavation has been underway for 3 weeks. Eighty-nine units have been sold, which is ahead of projected expectations. The 158 units are selling between $250,000 and $3 million, averaging $350/SF. The second tower will have fewer but larger units (96 units).
4. Jim Slotta offered his perspective from the South City Park neighborhood. An MOU signed with the most recent Mercy Housing affordable housing redevelopment helped shape an agreement for improved construction parking and working hours in the area.
5. Kathleen reported on the progress of the Lowenstein Theater development. The Tattered Cover will be moving in by June 25, 2006. Twist & Shout and an unnamed small screen movie theater will occupy the new building addition. Charley Wooley is pursuing options for obtaining liquor licensing for the development. The proximity of East High School is a problematic issue and Kathleen will advise him to discuss with City Council members among others regarding options.
6. The scoreboard was approved by DPS and is moving forward independently of the DPS policies being crafted for advertising.
7. Wes reported that some of the bleachers were erected by rugby and baseball volunteer parents. PAP paid for the bleachers on the baseball field and DPS Facilities paid for the concrete steps. DPS will remove old fencing and concrete and PAP will pay for net screens. Larry Williams has submitted the Landmark Application for the field lighting.
8. The National Register nomination for the school will be presented to the Colorado Historical Society today.
9. Larry Williams has submitted the Plaza plans application to Landmark.
10. The conservancy concept was discussed and concluded more research is needed to develop the idea. Helen will research. The website needs to be updated. Helen agreed to review and comment.

Meeting adjourned at 9:30 AM.
