Mr. Silvey stated that Alternative I did not include the brick but a heavier finish with a concrete base and just a rough finish of the City Plaza and south parking lot being graded and leveled.

Mr. Garretson made a motion that the Council direct the Mayor to proceed with Alternative I, to try to enhance the City Hall plaza from that but below the $670,000 stated, and to go with the complete City Square and Street and the entire north parking lot and to try and reduce the cost of the ziggurat.
