Councilmember Brown thanked the people who came who knew Ms. Jones. She inquired as to the progress on the Century House and where the City is at in that process. In regard to the proceeds of the sale of Ms. Jones' house, she would prefer a discussion of the Council to be scheduled to review the options for the disbursement of proceeds in light of what was proposed this evening. City Manager Fialho addressed that tonight's item was authorizing sale of the home and the use proceeds as an endowment. The City will have some flexibility on how to use assets, however the Executor of the estate has to concur with the particular use of the funds. The endowment will be set up and maintained by the City. Councilmember Brown suggested the approval of the sale as the first step and then come back with defined terms for distribution of the sale proceeds. Councilmember Olson expressed support for the City's management of the endowment and would like to see a future discussion on how and for what items the funds will be disbursed. He supports the use of the existing museum space to honor Ms. Jones and her historical items and also supports efforts toward the Century House.
