b) SC Gas Buildinq Dr. Jimenez of the Orange County Children's Therapeutic Arts Center and the Chapman Film School are interested in possibly occupying the building. Both organizations toured the building with Dave Ream. A decision is yet to be made. c) Phase III Olson Lofts Status Jay Trevino has met with the Olson Company in a series of meetings in the last few months. To date, there is no proforma as yet and density is still an issue. Staff will continue working with the Olson Company on these issues and on receiving a good project design from them. d) Otis Buildinq Update Pat Whitaker has been in contact with Rikki Zuckerman, owner of the Otis Building, and the placement of the bus stop continues to be an issue. A possible solution may be to request the owner to paint the building first and then move the bus stop to its original location, which would be coordinated by OCT A and the City. Staff will continue working on this issue. ( e) Construction of Archway Siqn on South Main Street The size and two possible locations (1st and Main and North of Warner) were discussed. At the next meeting, Jim Ross will report on the feasibility of the locations and the cost of the sign. In the meantime, Pat Whitaker will send budget information to the Committee. f) Nexus Entry Siqn Update The art concept design was shown to the Committee. The City will be responsible for retaining the artist, Nexus will fund the creation, and the City will pay for maintenance, as the art will be in a public right of way. Having this public art will be a precedent for the City of Santa Ana. A pedestal will also be added. Jim Ross and Jay Trevino will update the Committee at the next meeting. 7.
