=== North Shop Lease negotiations - Jeremy (20 min) ===
* Interested in short-term lease to keep options open for new North Shop locations north of the river
* Short-term lease interests also stem from aversion from committing to a long lease, financially
* Property for sale at 105 Ave./113 St.
** Empty building, former printshop (8250 ft^2, though will be down to ~2000 ft^2)
** Will come back with a financial analysis of the property
** Cost will likely be more than current North Community Bike Shop, though location is much better and on bike infrastructure
** Could draw on volunteer power from Grant MacEwan students
** Generally, higher profit potential compared to current location
** Next steps are to get other staff to view the place, crunch numbers to see actual costs
