MINUTES

Cresco Theatre Commission

The Cresco Theatre Commission met Thursday, February 29th, 2024, at 5:00 PM in Champlin Hall.  Members present were David Gosch, Steve Lickteig, Kelly Bartling, Ann Seebach, and Julie Wilson.  Guests:  Wendy Lickteig, Cresco Theatre Manager, Stan Fosaaen, City Council, and Brian Stark, MGA Architect.

The purpose of this meeting was to meet with the architect for the Scene Shop.  The plans were reviewed and many questions were asked.  Brian Stark gave his opinion of costs, telling the commission that he always gives a high opinion of cost so that there are no surprises in the future.  He encouraged the Commission to go out and get local quotes, to get a truer picture of building costs in our area.  Because this is a city project, three or more quotes are needed.

Those present toured the Theatre green room, current storage areas, etc… and generated other ideas that could save money on the project.

The meeting adjourned at 6:20 PM.

Respectfully submitted,

Julie A. Wilson
