• #2 Consider Resolution 2011-2: Resolution #2011-2 authorizes CEURA to approve an
agreement with Norman Jewelers to upgrade their commercial site in conjunction with the
streetscape improvement program for downtown Caldwell. CEURA owns the building adjoining
Norman Jewelers and desires to set an example to aesthetically improve the entire facilities by
upgrading the exterior of the existing building by use of a new fa�ade design, signage and paint.
Chairman Waite stated that Norman Jewelers was the first business in downtown Caldwell to invest
in streetscape improvements through the Caldwell LID at a cost of $4,426.75 in 1999. CEURA
previously had a plan to partner with downtown merchants for streetscape improvements that
received criticism from several downtown businesses and thus failed. A new plan is currently being
developed. By including Norman Jewelers section of the building in the fa�ade improvement
project, CEURA effectively partners with a downtown business to offset their cost for streetscape
improvements.
#3 Consider proposal from Tom Smith: Chairman Waite stated that SW District Health is
requiring the installation of a refrigerated sandwich prep table in order to continue serving fresh-
made sandwiches in the retail space of the TVCC building. A bid for $1,394.01 has been secured
for a unit that can be installed with the relocation of a section of counter space. The cost for labor
and materials will not exceed $730. Motion to purchase a refrigerated prep table for the retail
space in the T'VCC building at a cost of $1,394.01 plus tax, with labor and materials cost not to
exceed $730: Hopper/Rojas M/5/P
