A) Action to approve a Commitment Agreement for Continuing Business Operation between Carson City and Michael Hohl Motor Company that provides a financial incentive catalyst for the development of Mr. Hohl's new car sale facilities located within Redevelopment Project Area No. 2 in exchange for Mr. Hohl's commitment to retain all his auto dealerships in Carson City for a period of no less than 20 years.

Consistent with the goals of Project Area No. 2's Redevelopment Plan, the Auto Sales Workgroup is proposing a 2-tiered incentive package for the Michael Hohl Motor Company to help Mr. Hohl develop state-of-the-art Honda, Subaru and possibly additional facilities to strengthen the auto sales sector in Carson City and generate increased new car sales. Mr. Hohl and the City have negotiated a Commitment Agreement that pledges his dealerships to remain in Carson City for no less than 20 years.
