By November of this year, the IMC will open its performance and community 
space, and Radio Free Urbana will go on the air.  This will co-incide with 
the international RFU radio barnraising November 11-13 at the IMC.

Attached are images of our architect's proposed changes to the first floor 
and lower level.  These are also posted in the IMC meeting space, lower 
level of the post office, north entrance.

Red indicates Phase 1 changes to be complete by Nov, 2005.  These include:

- create an appealing front entrance to the IMC's meeting, production, and 
performance space.
- provide a visible presence for an RFU studio with easy, 24/7 access.
- divide the post office from the rest of the IMC space maintaining public 
access to post boxes and the post office access to a workroom, dock, and 
shared bathrooms.

Orange indicates Phase 2 changes to be complete in 2006. These include:

- adding accessible bathrooms on the first floor
- adding a staircase to provide additional egress for a retail tenant.

IMC members and the public have FIVE ways to participate in finalizing the 
design for the space.  

1) Send suggestions, comments, and concerns to space (at) ucimc.org 
between now and September 28th.

2) Post comments under the blueprints hanging in the IMC meeting space.

3) Come to the next space meeting, Wednesday Sept 21 @ IMC meeting room to 
discuss.

4) Come to the space meeting, Wednesday, Sept 28 8 PM @ IMC meeting room 
to help finalize plans.

5) Come to the IMC Steering meeting, Thursday, Sept 29th at 8 PM in the 
IMC meeting room to do a final sign off.

At the membership meeting, Saturday, Oct 1 the membership will be asked to 
review plans and give future input.

Construction is going out for bid on Monday, October 3rd.
