time.
And Whereas a civic-minded community group has
voluntarily come forward
with a plan to secure the building for possible future
uses.
And Whereas this group intends to fund-raise and
solicit grants from government

on for a reasonable length of
time.

expertise as well as
promises of donations in-kind and voluntary labour to
secure the building.
And whereas an archivist has unearthed many historical
facts about the building's
80-year history and its unique architectural features.
And whereas there has been much public comment in
favour of saving the
building in the media and through emails to City Hall.
And whereas the Columbia Basin Institute of Regional
History and the East
Kootenay Historical Society have both called for the
building to be saved.
And whereas a number of possible uses have been
suggested for the building if
it's preserved.
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City's demolition
order be suspended
for one year after passage of this motion to give the
community group an
opportunity to secure the Brick Building and redevelop
it into a structure that
would serve the City and preserve Cranbrook's brick
