Mr. Randy Kyte, applicant, Harsch Investment Properties, continued the presentation and displayed the proposed revisions and reconfiguration of Alameda Towne Centre on the overhead screen. He summarized the changes: 1. The square footage from the prior approval would be reduced because Target store was not needed; 2. The Safeway building would be renovated by the same architectural team involved in the other buildings; and 3. An additional 73,000 square feet would be added at the Mervyn's building site. It would be a department store expansion but Target was no longer involved with the project. Mr. Kyte noted that Borders was complete and would be turned over to that company on December 3, 2007, anticipating an opening in late February or early March, 2008.
