II . REUSE RE�OMMErvDA'':O��S The Riverside School Si±e �ask Force makes th� �ollowing reuse recom- � mendations : i. The Riverside Recreation Center should ret�aln at the site, w�ith *he Schooi Board transferring ownership o` the property to the City. ��.�y� 2. ror a per;od ending December l, I983, the P,iverside Schcol Si*e � Task Force should explore the possibility of lacating � private, non- �� profit tenant to lease the building frnm thE City. ?. �f *he Riverside School Site Task Force is unable ta secure a su�*atle tenant by December � , 1983, the building should �e remoaed. :r, this case, the entire site would be devoted to park and apen . spa�e usage. ihe task force views these recommendations as a warkable compromise solutior�. The task force is primarily concernpd that th2 site rpmain a park. It would also like to save the existing building if passible. The �ask force would �herefore like to see a community �enter br�nch located in the building or some other private, non-profit organization, compatible to the neighborhood and the site's current R-4 zoning. However, such reuse does not meet City plans; hence, there is no public purpose to be served by City involvement and the City would not � u� be able to help finance such a reuse. Any lease agreement would have to specify, therefore, that rehabilitation and maintenar,ce cf the building vrould be borne 'rel b t - -�� ter,ant �ith � nce from thP neiqhborhood The appraise� val uQ of the bui 1 di ng i s ap{�roximately =� ; rehabi 1 i tati on costs have__ been estimated to be about S3C,Q00; th� building' s annual maintenance ar�d operating expenses are estimated to he�aF.�roximately �40,000. Reaiizing t�at in the current :limate of constrained resources , locating a private, non-profit organization in �he Guilding may not be economically feasibie, the task force has decided to put a time limit on recommendation r2 abovE. � � ��, . � � ��:� March sU, :y83 �,� ��' 3°�� Page 3 � ' . , . . . , . . _A C:6 �rr.�asal _fIIr_�Emal.ltion of ±he �ui'aing and �andscap�rc has been_. subtrai.�ted Dy th� Departmen� o` CJRimUr���y �ervices .
