Zionsville Architectural Review Committee (ZARC)

Zionsville Architectural Review Committee Meeting Minutes Monday, December 22, 2014 Attendees: Committee Members: Tom Casalini Beth Casselman Eileen Davis Brad Johnson Dave Rausch Mike Zeller President Dave Rausch opened the meeting at 7:30 pm. At 8:00pm with a quorum present, Dave offered a review of the Agenda. Brad Johnson made a motion to approve the single item Agenda. Seconded by Mike Zeller. Motion approved unanimously. Old Business: Project Updates: 10 S. Main, Rosie’s th Work is complete, and Rosie’s opened on December 18 . The owners submitted paperwork requesting a grant of $19,242.95 based on 40% of actual cost of $48,107.38, which exceeds the approved amount. The committee had originally approved a grant of $25,872 based on 40% of a $64,680 budget, but this amount was revised based on the revised construction budget of $31,635.52, and the committee approved a grant award of 40% in the amount of $12,654. The scope changed to include both back doors and removal of an old shed, plus a new mechanical deck to house and hide exhaust blower and air conditioning units; however, the work is complete and the committee neither received a revised budget nor approved a revised amount. Therefore, the maximum grant remains $12,654. The committee can not award a grant for work completed before a budget is approved. Furthermore, Brad noted that the Town of Zionsville has a maximum grant amount that may be awarded to any single project. As Rosie’s also received other Town grants at the maximum allowed, even if ZARC were inclined to award a revised grant, the difference would be deducted from other Town grants. After a motion made by Tom Casalini and seconded by Mike Zeller, and following thoughtful discussion, the committee unanimously approved a grant payment of $12,654. New Business: No new applications or inquiries have been received. With no additional business, Eileen Davis moved to adjourn at 8:15 pm. Tom Casalini seconded. Adjournment followed unanimous approval. Respectfully submitted, Beth Casselman
