'Ark' offers to rent
renovate present site

By CARL WEISER
The Ark may have found a home -
right in the house it now occupies.
Officials from the nationally
renowned coffee house yesterday of-
fered to lease Hill House from the First
Presbyterian Church, which now owns
the building, according to Charles
Tyson, a fund-raising consultant for the
Ark.
UNDER THE proposed agreement,
the Ark would pay $1,000 a month rent,
plus utilities, taxes, and renovation ex-
penses, Tyson said. He said the lease
would cost the Art about $50,000 per
year.
Most of the money would go toward
renovations, he said. The house needs
an estimated $100,000 to $200,000 worth
of repairs. About $15,000 per year would
have to go to repairs, Tyson said.
Tyson made the verbal offer to
Charles Reinhardt Co., the ,churph's-
realtor, early yesterday morning, he
said.
REINHARDT SAID the even-
tual aim of the Ark was to buy Hill
House from the church. "After the
short term lease, the Ark expects to
purchase the building," he said.
Reinhardt, a member of the gover-
ning Church Session and the Hill House
committee, said he thought the offer
might not be enough. "It's not quite the
economic rent for the building," he
said.
William Austin, chairman of the Hill
House committee, agreed the offer
might be too small. "It's a little on the
low side," he said. A few other groups
have looked at Hill House, though no of-
fers have been made, Austin said.
CHURCH OFFICIALS said they were
surprised by the offer. Quentin Holmes,

a member of the session, said he had
reservations as to whether the Ark is
presently able to afford the rent. "Un-
der the way things are right now, the
Ark doesn't have access to those kind of
resources," he said.
Dave Siglin, manager of the Ark, was
also somewhat surprised by the offer.
"The whole idea of staying here is only
two weeks old," he said.
The offer, after it is written, will go
before the Hill House commitee, which
includes James Brinkerhoff, University
vice president and chief financial of-
ficer, Reinhardt, and Minister William
Hillegonds.
IF THE proposal passes the Hill
House committee, it will be voted on by
the church session on April 13.
Siglin was optimistic that the lease
would pass. "I see no reason why the
church would not rent to us," he said.
Siglin also said that the Ark has four
other strong options available. "Hill
House is still our first choice," he ad-
ded, "and the Church's first choice is,
the Ark."
However, Brinkerhoff warned that
the Ark would have to show that it is
capable of restoring the house, "and I
know they are not," he said.
Karl Hauser, chairman of the Chur-
ch's property commission, said, "I still
wouldn't want the Ark back."
SIGLIN SAID that despite the $50,000
a year bill, which he called an "enor-
mous amount," he had "complete faith
that we'll pull it off."
