Thank
you
before
we
begin
our
agenda
just
for
those
of
you
here
or
following
around
home.
The
members
of
this
committee
are
council,
member
Greg,
council,
member
Brady,
mayor
teckenberg,
myself
and
councilmember
Parker
we'd
like
to
welcome
council
members,
Appel
and
council
member
shade,
who
have
some
interest
in
our
agenda
today
and
we'll
probably
play
some
minor
starring
roles
at
some
point
along
the
way
today.
But
our
committee
is
the
five
aforementioned
council
members
with
the
mayor.
F
A
F
G
F
H
We
go
okay,
so
this
project
is
funded
by
the
2016
half
cent
sales
tax.
It
is
one
of
the
feature
projects
that
were
presented
as
part
of
the
sales
tax
referendum.
So
at
that
time
we
presented
a
number
of
feature
projects
to
the
public
and
invited
them
to
provide
their
input
and
feedback
on
these
projects.
H
We
had
to
focus
that
key
on
key
intersections,
where
we
could
make
sure
we
met
that
purpose
in
terms
of
a
level
of
service,
and
so
we
had
five
goals
that
we
wanted
to
make
sure
that
we
met
first
and
foremost
was
to
relieve
traffic
congestion
on
Savannah.
Highway.
I
wanted
to
make
sure
we
improved
safety
for
both
vehicles
and
pedestrians
wanted
to
create
more
connectivity
for
pedestrians
all
while
minimizing
our
right-of-way
impacts,
and
so
we
were
able
to
identify
three
intersections
along
the
corridor
where
we
will.
H
That
should
be
experience
with
these
improvements,
so
am
peak
hour
to
see
25
Improvement
in
the
2042
build
year
and
in
the
PM
peak
hour,
47
Improvement
in
level
of
service.
So
this
project
was
well
received
by
the
public,
and
this
project
is
moving
forward
with
design.
The
survey
is
currently
underway
and
we
expect
that
this
intersection
will
be
ready
to
go
to
construction
around
mid
next
year.
H
You
can
see
there
at
Daniel
Road,
where
Alicia
alley
currently
has
access
to
Savannah
highway.
Now
it
will
become
a
landscaped
median,
so
they'll
no
longer
be
able
to
make
those
dangerous
left
turns
onto
Savannah
highway
there.
So
adding
reversing
that
direction
will
provide
a
safe
access
there,
the
new
intersection
and
so
just
to
rewind
a
little
bit
on
how
these
improvements
came
about
early
on
in
this
project.
The
city
brought
this
concept
to
the
county.
H
I
believe
it's
one
that
was
developed
through
the
planning
processes
that
the
city
had,
because
it
helped
to
achieve
some
of
the
long-term
goals
that
the
city
had
for
this
Avondale
District,
and
so
the
county
took
that
this
concept
and
did
some
traffic
modeling,
and
we
found
that
it
does
provide
considerable
Improvement
in
level
of
service.
And
you
can
see
that
there
on
the
bottom
tables,
where
we've
got
the
level
of
service
tables.
And
you
can
see,
we've
gotten
the
2042
design
year.
H
And
so,
when
you
presented
this
to
the
public
last
year
and
got
the
most
number
of
comments
on
this
intersection,
most
of
which
revolved
around
property
impacts
due
to
the
realignment,
a
lot
of
concern
over
the
building
it
to
Avondale,
Avenue
and
also
blessed
sacraments
property.
There
there's
a
triangular
piece
of
property
at
the
approach
of
the
newly
realigned,
Avondale
Avenue,
and
that
piece
of
property
is
owned
by
the
church
and
they
lease
that
space
to
the
commercial
building
and
they
receive
income
from
that
property.
H
But
I
know
since
that
time.
The
city
has
been
engaging
with
the
property
owners
mayor
tecklenberg
met
with
the
diocese
to
help
him
talk
over
a
lot
of
the
concerns
that
they
had
and
then
more
recently,
we
had
a
county
town
hall
meeting
where
we
heard
some
additional
concerns
from
the
Avondale
and
burns
down.
Neighborhoods
I
think
a
lot
of
those
concerns
revolved
around
an
increase
in
cut
through
traffic
that
they
believe
that
these
this
realignment
would
facilitate.
H
So
we
don't
think
that
I
think
part
of
it
is
when
you
improve
the
traffic
flow
on
Savannah
Highway.
That
in
itself
would
help
to
alleviate
some
of
that
cut
through
traffic
that
they
experience
now,
because
you're
gonna
have
better
traffic
flow
and
people
are
more
encouraged
and
incentivized
to
stay
on
Savannah
Highway
versus
wanting
to
cut
through
those
side,
roads,
I
think
also.
Another
concern
that
we
heard
is
providing
that
new
signal.
H
Without
a
signal
there
so,
but
we
did
hear
the
Public's
concerns
and
so
we're
going
to
do
an
additional
traffic
study
and
kind
of
look
at
An
Origin
destination
analysis
of
what
traffic
is
doing
now
and
with
these
improvements
you
know
what
will
happen
then,
just
so
we
can
show
at
least
with
data.
You
know
that
there
will
not
be
an
increase
in
cut
through
traffic,
and
so
at
this
point
with
this
project,
the
county
is
on
hold
with
this
intersection
we're
not
moving
forward.
H
I
So
sunshine,
thank
you
for
being
with
us
today
in
the
presentation
on
the
wampoo
road
project.
It
says
the
sidewalk
extension
was
actually
Greenway
by
the
City
of
Charleston.
Didn't
we
come
to
an
agreement
with
y'all
that
I
guess
it
originated
with
us,
but
y'all
the
county
is
going
to
actually
do
the
project.
Maybe
you
said
that
I
missed.
H
H
I
Who
are
you
going
to
call
Sunshine
you're
the
you're,
the
traffic
congestion,
Buster
I've,
never
seen
that
before
that's
remarkable
and
I
I
know,
there's
still
a
few
concerns
about
this,
but
I
think
that
right
there
tells
us
that
we
need
to
figure
this
out,
work
those
things
out
and
try
to
move
this
forward.
Thank
you.
So
much.
J
Yes
and
thank
you,
debris
and
sunshine
for
for
being
here
today,
so
just
on
the
wapu
Road
one.
Is
there
a
projected
start
time
for
construction
if
we
had
like
a
best
guest
estimate,
because
I
know,
I
represent
this
area
along
with
council
member
Appel
and
obviously
our
mutual
constituents,
along
with
our
County
Council
counterparts,
would
love
to
know.
H
F
Sure
any
other
member
of
the
committee
I've
got
to.
Can
you
go
back
to
Magnolia
in
that
whole
area
I'm
there
so
I?
Can
you
explain
to
me
a
little
bit
how
that
intersection
at
Magnolia,
with
the
realignment
works
with
that
traffic
light?
Can
you
take
a
left
if
you're
going
into
towards
town
onto
Magnolia?
Is
there
going
to
be
a
left
turn
signal
there
and
you
have
to
continue
on
on
the
southbound
lane
straight.
H
F
F
H
Yes,
I
think
the
biggest
thing
here
with
the
intersections
you've
got
Magnolia
Maple
and
then
Avondale
and
Nicholson
all
in
such
a
close
proximity
to
each
other,
which
really
is
very
inefficient
for
traffic
flow,
so
by
just
separating
them
out
just
makes
a
huge
difference
for
traffic,
because
now
you
know,
there's
really
no
way
to
time
those
signals
right
when
they're
that
close
together
to
be
able
to
move
traffic
efficiently.
So
doing
this
would
allow
us
to
do.
F
That
it's
crazy
in
there
that
used
to
be
my
district,
but
more
importantly,
my
mom
used
to
live
just
south
of
17
and
there
and
getting
in
and
out
there
it
was
crazy
and
I
just
haven't
improved
pedestrian
access
makes
it
so
much
better
yeah.
So
this
one's
on
hold
what
what
and
I'll
turn
over
these?
What
needs
to
happen
before
you
put
it
back
on
green
light,
go.
H
F
I
I
H
So
we
we
actually
did
receive
a
lot
of
comments
on
that
in
the
public
meeting,
and
so,
as
a
result,
we
did
do
another
traffic
analysis
to
look
at.
Does
it
warrant
the
left
turn
lane,
because
these
are
DOT
roadways.
They
have
to
have
a
certain
number
of
volume
criteria
to
be
able
to
Warrant
left
turn
protected
left
turn
signals,
so
we
did
another
study,
but
they
do
not
meet
the
volume
requirements.
For
that.
H
L
Well,
it's
it's
both
of
ours.
You
know
you're
across
the
street
I'm
over
in
the
burns
down
area,
but
first
off
Mr
chairman.
Thank
you
so
much
for
allowing
us
to
attend
and
and
speak
and
I
want
to
thank
sunshine
and
DeVry
with
the
county
for
being
here
and
of
course,
our
staff
are
working
on
this
project
and
and
the
Avondale
and
Magnolia
intersection
is,
is
extremely
important.
The
the
area
that
the
mayor
was
just
talking
about
somebody
died
there
about
a
month
ago.
L
Okay,
this
is
serious
stuff,
it's
a
it's!
It's
not
just
a
congested
area.
It's
an
unsafe
area.
If
you've
ever
been
to
Avondale,
if
you've
ever
been
to
Avondale
at
night.
You
know
there's
a
lot
that
goes
on
around
there
and
we
need
to
do
what
we
can
to
make.
This
area
function
better
for
all
modes
of
getting
around
the
world,
whether
it
be
in
a
vehicle,
whether
it
be
on
a
bike,
whether
it
be
walking
and
everything
in
between,
especially
given
the
increased
use
of
the
greenway.
L
The
future
bike,
ped
bridge
that
this
committee
knows
a
lot
about,
and
so
I
agree
with
the
sentiment.
That's
been
expressed
today.
This
is
an
important
project
that
we
need
to
see
through
and
I
understand
the
concerns
of
the
folks
in
Burns
Downs
and
the
folks
in
in
Avondale.
You
know
when
you
see
a
road
realigned,
it's
serious
stuff,
it's
it's
it's
beyond
what
we're
doing
at
wapu
in
Stinson,
it's
it's
more
invasive
surgery,
so
to
speak,
but
it's
a
it's
an
indication
of
how
problematic
the
existing
conditions
are.
L
So
that's
why
that
that
effort
hasn't
happened.
I
was
very
interested.
Sunshine
When
You
indicated
that
you
know
there's
a
common
sense
view
that
you
know
you
align
intersections.
It's
going
to
cause
cars
to
go
through
neighborhoods,
so
I
was
really
pleased
to
hear
that
the
county
is
going
to
do
some
additional
work
analyzing
some
of
those
issues.
So
we
can
go
back
to
the
community
and
explain
with
data
what
what
the
findings
are.
I
mean
I
I've
heard
from
the
experts.
L
The
benefits
and
the
issues
were
downed
throughout
West
Ashley
in
the
city,
because
we
all
Traverse
this
part
of
Savannah
highway
and
when
I
saw
that
F
to
an
a
I
mean
that's
like
the
best
academic
achievement.
Success
story,
it's
like
a
30
by
30
or
something
you
know,
pulling
pulling
an
F
to
an
a.
It
indicates
that
this
is
a
project
worth
working
through
and
not
running
away
from,
and
we
need
to
keep
the
neighborhoods.
L
You
know
concerns
in
mind.
We
need
to
factor
in
maybe
some
additional
things
we
can
do
to
support
bike
and
pedestrian
safety
and
Mobility,
but
let's
continue
to
work
together,
arm
and
arm
County
and
City
and
deliver
this
very
important
necessary
project
for
all.
So
thanks
again
to
everybody
and
let's
keep
pushing
forward.
G
Yeah,
thank
you
Mr
chairman
and
thanks
for
allowing
us
to
chime
in
on
this
I
think
this
may
be
the
third
or
fourth
time,
I've,
seen
this
presentation
and
every
time
I
do
this
I
learn
a
little
bit
more
and
I
appreciate
what
how
y'all
put
this
together
if
you'd
go
back
to
the
upper
Southern
portion
of
Highway
17
and
the
wapu
DuPont
area.
So
there
is
a
and
I
I
can't
tell
from
here,
but
Mr
palacis
is
planning
this
Mega
beautiful,
Hotel
complex,
which
is
actually
outside
of
the
city.
G
H
G
But
we
haven't
gotten
that
that
far
yet
because
and
then
the
second
part,
if
you
go
back
to
the
Magnolia
Avondale
in
to
the
the
points,
I
think
that
the
mayor
has
made
councilman
Appel
may
have
already
addressed
this.
The
the
F2
and
a
is
a
congestion.
Improvement
we've
talked
a
little
bit
about
Public
Safety,
but
how
would
how
would
you
raid
I'm
sorry?
How
would
you
rate
this
from
a
public
safety
component,
not
a
congestion
component?
Would
you
give
it
the
same
type
of
rating
or
not?
Yes,.
H
They'll
now
have
a
safe
means
to
do
that,
and
even
from
a
pedestrian
standpoint,
I
think
there's
you
know
one
crossing
over
here
by
Magnolia
and
another
one
by
Avondale,
but
now
all
four
legs
at
this
new
intersection
will
have
the
high
visibility
crosswalks
and
the
same
for
Magnolia.
Those
three
legs
will
have
those
high
visibility,
crosswalks
so
push
buttons
so
that
they
can
get
across
safely.
G
We're
gonna
have
a
huge
Improvement,
which
is
a
pure
safety
issue,
and
so
we
we
can
talk
a
lot
about
congestion
about
that
particular
session
on
Old
Town
Road.
That
also
I
think
that
was
critically
important
and
and
y'all
have
mentioned.
This
is
Russian
Roulette
mayor
that
mentioned
this,
that
on
Savannah
Highway,
the
improvements
on
here
May
save
someone's
life.
G
We've
got
to
emphasize
the
important
components
that
improving
these
intersections,
while
it's
really
going
to
go
from
this
after
a
grade
and
on
congestion
is
going
to
have
the
same
type
of
impact,
safety,
wise
and
so.
Opposition
to
this
and
I
know,
there's
a
lot
of
good
faith.
Opposition
to
this
and
I
and
respect
that
opposition
I've
heard
from
the
folks,
particularly
on
my
side
of
of
the
district
you've,
got
to
take
into
consideration
the
other
component
of
this,
which
is
Public
Safety
and
that's
critical.
F
Okay
questions
any
more
questions,
just
something
really
quick
on
the
hotel
that
miss
blasses
is
doing.
Have
you
looked
at
his
plans?
Are
they
asking
for
additional
curb
Cuts
in
anyone
in
that
property,
because
that
would
really
affect
I
think
that
project
if
they
had
additional,
curb
Cuts,
particularly
on
waffle,
Road
right?
Yes,.
F
Hopefully,
with
the
city
too,
even
we
haven't
convinced
them
to
come
and
join
us,
yet
we
may
one
of
these
days
but
I
think
the
coordinating
with
Robbie
and
his
team's,
probably
a
pretty
good
idea
too.
Thank
you
all
right
unless
they
say
Hello.
Thank
you.
So
much
for
this
update
really
helpful.
We'll
look
forward
to
hearing
more
as
we
move
forward
who.
F
F
F
F
It
was
dated
August
17th
of
2021,
so
we've
almost
gone
two
years
without
actually
instituting
the
additional
decals
at
night
and
I
would
just
point
out
a
few
things
and
then
I'll
see
how
the
committee
wants
to
go
about
proceeding
forward,
since
we
originally
did
this
and
I
take
full
responsibility
for
bringing
this
up,
because
I
think
it
was
my
idea.
A
lot
has
happened
in
the
city,
particularly
on
the
peninsula
of
Charles.
F
F
What's
working
right
now
is
working.
If
you
look
at
the
ordinance
what
we
did
when
we
re-adopted
this
ordinance,
we
made
some
changes.
We
did
three
things
one.
We
changed
the
name
from
Rickshaw
to
pedicap
I,
don't
think
we
want
to
mess
with
that
two.
We
took
away
the
Evergreen
provision
in
the
contracts
that
we
have
with
the
three
companies
that
currently
provide
services
in
the
city.
F
They
had
sort
of
like
basketball,
coach
contracts
they
just
rolled
over
rolled
over
rolled
over
automatically
they
now
after
the
end
of
this
next
five
period,
five-year
renewal
period
are
over
and
everything
goes
back
out
for
rebid.
So
this
whole
idea
there's
some
anti-competitive
nature
to
all
this.
We
negotiated
those
contracts.
We
took
advice
and
legal.
We
now
no
longer
have
Evergreen
provisions
on
them
and
then
the
last
thing
we
did
is
we
suggested
that
we
put
out
for
bid
at
night
time,
six
additional
tokens.
F
My
view
of
the
world
right
now
is
until
we
get
through
everything
that
I've
just
described
and
really
rethought
downtown,
adding
more
Vehicles
traffic
congestion
onto
already
congested
streets
when
there's
no
demand
for
this
particular
additional
service,
I
think
is
doing
a
disservice
to
those
that
we've
hired
to
go.
Think
about
this
holistically,
so
I
would
humbly
suggest
this
committee
that
we
leave
the
ordinance
alone,
except
for
that
additional
six
tokens.
We
leave
it
at
30
until
we
get
through
all
of
the
other
things
that
are
is
going
on
in
the
city.
F
Again,
it
was
two
years
ago
that
we
adopted
this
ordinance.
There
has
not
been
an
outcry
from
a
large
contingency
of
people,
particularly
downtown,
to
add
these,
even
though
we
put
it
in
the
ordinance
so
with
that
Soliloquy
I
know,
there's
probably
some
contrary
views
on
this
committee
and
I'm
certainly
happy
to
talk
about
it.
C
F
J
Yes,
thank
you
Mr
chairman
I
mean
this
has
been
something
that
has
kind
of
kept
bubbling
up
and
I.
You
know,
I
understand,
I,
don't
think
the
average
person
would
be
agitating
for
six
additional
pedicab
permits,
so
I
think
it's
a
little
a
little
disingenuous
to
say
that,
like
all
these
people
aren't
like
actively
requesting
just
because
it
is
kind
of
a
niche
industry.
J
So
I
just
I,
guess
I
understand
that
the
traffic
concern
but
at
the
same
time
we're
not
not
approving
hotels
or
adding
stuff
into
an
overlay
Zone
and
then
arguing
that
we
shouldn't
do
it
because
the
traffic
impacts
are
going
to
be
coming.
I
would
argue
that
they
probably
have
a
higher
traffic
impact
than
the
pedicabs
that
would
be
going
out
at
night
I.
Also
just
as
a
you
know,
this
is
a
capitalist.
J
Having
competition
is
a
good
thing,
so
allowing
for
more
competition
in
that
industry
to
compete
for
talent
to
compete.
For
you
know
people
to
ride
there
to
compete
for
customers.
You
know
I,
don't
think
it's
necessarily
a
bad
thing
to
do
so.
I
would
just
ask
I
think
we
voted
on
it.
Then.
We've
added
it,
let's
just
direct
procurement
to
do
it,
because
we
can
always
go
back
and
amend
the
ordinance
later
on.
J
If
we
decide
that
there
are
negative
impacts
down
the
road,
we
can
always
go
back
to
the
original
number,
but
obviously
we
did
approve
it
and
I
think
you
know
in
good
faith,
we've
approved
it
and
we
have
people
that
obviously
we're
following
along
with
what
we
were
doing
and
we
should
give
them
the
opportunity
to
at
least
bid
for
it.
I
would
say.
Thank
you
any.
D
M
E
M
It
it
seems,
like
maybe
I,
don't
want
to
put
a
fly
in
the
ointment
here,
but
it
seems
like
it
might
be
a
good
idea
to
change
that
to
where
some
of
them
are
are
renewing
every
year,
which
would
give
new
businesses
an
opportunity
to
rebid
or
existing
businesses
to
re-bid
new
business.
The
bid
on
these
every
year,
instead
of
once
every
five
years
but
I,
think
that's
not
what
we're
talking
about
here
today,
I'm
in
favor
of
moving
forward,
because
it's
six
I
don't
see
the
six
additional
Petty
gaps.
I
F
So
just
a
couple
of
quick
comments
based
on
the
comments
around
here,
the
the
every
year
thing
is
problematic,
I,
think
council,
member
because
of
the
requirements
of
our
ordinance
I
mean
the
the
companies
that
do
this
have
to
have
leases
in
place
on
the
peninsula
for
their
bikes
and
all
that
so
doing
it
annually.
I
think
would
really
actually
create
some
see
some
challenges
and
and
just
to
be
clear,
I
mean
one
of
the
underlying.
F
F
It
has
not
said,
we
need
more
access
to
pedicabs
for
our
customers
for
our
patrons
for
the
people
who
are
staying
here
so
I
just
I
just
wanted
to
sort
of
point
that
up
I
mean
this
has
been
an
internal
debate,
not
sort
of
an
external
need.
So
with
that,
if
there's
not
any
other
comments,
is
there
a
motion
from
this
committee
to
take
Up,
For,
Debate
or
vote,
so
we
can
pass
it
on
through
legal
to
city,
council,
yeah.
J
F
We
have
a
motion
in
a
second
which
was
just
basically
for
legal
purposes,
be
leaving
the
ordinance
Alone
any
discussion,
all
in
favor
aye,
any
opposed
I
the
eyes
have
it
okay.
Thank
you
very
much.
So
I
guess
we'll
get
back.
Robbie
and
you'll
talk
to
our
procurement
team
and
let
us
know
sort
of
the
timing
on
this.
F
Yes,
sir,
okay
I
see
oh
magalies
chimed
in
that
must
be
because
she's
getting
ready
for
the
next
thing.
All
right
next
is
ordinance
to
a
Man
chapter,
21
of
the
code
of
the
City
of
Charleston,
by
adding
new
section
21-2
to
article
one
parking
or
storage
of
commercial
vehicles
as
amended.
This
is
I
think
why
council
member
shade
has
made
his
guest
appearance
I,
see
and
might
have
a
starring
role,
all
right,
I'm,
going
to
turn
this
over
to
legal
to
begin
and
then
we'll
go
from
there.
C
Thank
you.
We
reviewed
this
a
little
bit
further
in
legal
and
are
recommending
a
deferral
of
this
item
so
that
we
can
further
discuss
a
little
bit
of
the
language
and
and
also
see
whether
or
not
we
might
want
to
clarify
some
of
the
specific
Provisions
one.
One
item
that
we
were
looking
at
is
whether
it
might
be
more
suitable
for
this
to
live
in
the
zoning
code.
F
F
I
C
F
G
F
D
Well,
we
have
full
requests
today
for
traffic
common
I
think
the
maps
were
included
in
your
folders
for
for
your
review.
That
would
be
for
Laurel
Avenue,
Staffordshire,
Staffordshire,
Drive,
Canterbury,
Road
and
Oakleaf
Street
on
Daniel
Island.
If
you
have
any
questions,
be
happy
to
answer
those
any.
F
F
D
A
F
A
F
The
debate
we
had
was
to
lower
speed
limits.
Remember
in
this
whole,
this
crazy
bureaucratic,
circuitous
route
we
had
to
take.
This
is
just
our
internal
traffic,
calming
request,
which
is
a
lot
more
expeditious
than
that
lowering
of
the
speed
limits,
although
it
probably
could
be
a
little
more
streamlined.
But
yes,
this
is
this.
Is
our
internal
okay,.
A
I
F
B
N
B
Give
a
update
report
on
the
Entertainment
District
for
the
King
Street,
every
Thursday,
Friday
and
Saturday
night.
As
far
as
the
the
parking
restrictions
this
past
weekend
happened
to
be
the
fifth
weekend
since,
since
February
the
9th
we
began
the
detail,
I'd
like
to
explain
the
process
of
how
we
have
moved
forward
every
Thursday,
Friday
and
Saturday
night.
We
begin
the
process
with
bagging
all
the
meters
from
Canyon
John
to
Canyon
spring,
which
comes
out
to
be
about
80
parking
spaces.
B
So
we
bagged
The
Meters
this
the
bags
itself
have
placards
in
them
saying
Towing
tonight,
yes,
sir,
and
we
also
put
our
flyers
on
each
cars,
the
red
Flyers,
not
only
giving
the
citizens
warning
that
at
six
o'clock
this
becomes
a
prohibited
Zone
and
a
car
can
possibly
be
towed
away,
but
it
also
give
guidance
of
where
else
they
could
park,
mainly
being
whether
it's
a
side
street
or
the
parking
garages
nearby.
So
that's
the
second
step.
The
the
third
step
is
when
we
come
through
at
six
o'clock.
B
B
Even
though
the
signs
say
six
o'clock,
we
give
folks
the
benefit
of
the
doubt.
We
don't
begin
the
process
until
seven
o'clock,
you
have
an
extra
an
hour,
a
buffer.
There
come
seven
o'clock,
we
begin
the
towing
process,
removing
the
vehicles
from
from
King
Street,
both
sides
being
east
and
west
I
must
say,
since
this
process
has
started
we're
in
the
fifth
week.
B
When
we
started
back
in
October
of
last
year,
up
to
the
February,
the
9th,
we
were
literally
writing
90
to
100
tickets,
a
night
just
by
the
signs
being
up,
no
Towing,
just
writing
tickets.
Well,
unfortunately,
we
weren't
getting
any
compliance
even
with
writing
those
tickets.
So
we
moved
to
the
to
the
to
the
to
the
enforcement.
As
far
as
Towing
you
give
your.
B
Gun
says:
I'm,
sorry
since
February,
the
9th
33
toes,
which
is
very
minimal,
so
you're
average
in
four
to
four
four
to
five
toes
per
night.
If
you
do
the
15
nights
that
we've
done
so
far,
tickets
have
only
been
12.
and
Mr
Mayor.
We
spoke
about
the
idea
of
not
adding
insult
to
injury
of
ticketing
and
towing
folks,
so
we
weren't
ticketing
and
only
12
tickets.
B
You
know
in
this
past
five
weeks
on
side
streets,
because
you
don't
want
to
ignore
that,
because
you
have
in
folks
parking
on
fire
hydrants
they're
playing
too
close
to
intersections.
So
now
it
becomes
a
safety
issue
and
that's
why
we
have
to
make
sure
once
we
get
King
Street
locked
down.
Usually
it
was
about
8
30
at
night.
We
make
sure
we
focus
on
the
side
street
the
neighboring
streets.
So
that's
that's,
become
a
hazard,
but
it's
been
great.
I
tell
you.
B
It's
been
a
great
Coalition
between
the
Police
Department
business,
neighborhood
and
services,
traffic
and
transportation
in
the
parking
division
and
I
want
to
say
it's
been
a
success.
Everything
I
miss
mentioned
about
the
process.
We
do
Thursday,
Friday
and
Saturday
night
is
made
it
to,
whereas
we've
actually
had
a
couple
of
nights.
We
haven't
told
anybody.
So
that's
great,
you
know,
so
the
goal
was
always
to
get
it
to
90.
95
Corporation
from
the
citizens
and
I
want
to
think
we're
there.
B
You
know
and
the
goal
is
to
not
have
to
bag.
The
Meters
not
have
to
put
flyers
out
not
have
to
place
cones,
and
hopefully
the
folks
will
just
comply
to
the
signage.
Only
okay,
but
that's
a
process
we'll
see
in
a
couple
of
months,
where
we're
at
and
probably
piecemeal
in
and
see.
If
we
can
possibly
get
away
with
bagging
every
other
one
or
just
bagging,
but
no
cones
and
we'll
you
know
we'll
cross
that
road
when
it
gets
to
it,
but
overall
I
think
it's
been
a
great
success.
So
far,
so.
G
F
K
I
apologize,
I
can't
be
there.
I
just
wanted
to
be
there
for
moral
support
for
Mr
Lawrence.
There
I'm,
actually
at
a
conference
where
I'll
be
speaking
tomorrow
about
traffic
stops
so
very
apropos
for
the
traffic
and
transportation
committee
here.
So
I
just
wanted
to
take
a
minute
if
I
may
Mr,
chairman
absolutely
and
just
say,
we
appreciate
all
the
help.
I
think
it's
been
a
huge
success.
K
It's
just
been
a
huge
team
effort,
I
think.
If
anybody's
been
down
to
King
Street
last
month,
they've
seen
the
difference
down
there.
We've
we've
seen
a
tremendous
effect,
I
think
it's
safer
for
the
people
that
are
driving
down
there.
You
don't
have
people
dipping
between
cars
or
hanging
out
around
the
cars
and
just
the
visibility
side
for
the
public
safety
factor
is
huge
for
us.
So
I
just
want
to
thank
this.
K
This
group
for
their
support,
as
we
move
through
this
and
like
Mr
Lawrence
mentioned,
we'll,
continue
to
see
how
we
can
do
this
where
hopefully
signs
signs
are
the
only
thing
we
have
to
do
and
they're
up,
but,
as
he
mentioned,
October
the
February.
We
got
no
compliance
and
we're
seeing
a
great
deal
of
compliance
now
at
this
point,
so
we'll
continue
to
evolve
as
we
move
through
this,
but
just
just
want
to
thank
the
group.
F
I
Committee,
so
thank
you
Tyrone
and
Lieutenant
for
the
report
and
I
too
feel
like
it's
gone
well,
so
I
I
just
think
we
need
to
think
out
now
what
what
comes
next,
if
we're,
if
we're
going
to
stick
with
this
regimen,
what
can
we
do
to
make
it
look
nicer?
What
can
we
do
maybe
to
activate
the
street
just
a
little
bit.
I
You
know,
I'll,
give
you
an
example.
Maybe
there
should
be
some
valet
parking
allowed
along
that
side
of
the
street
or
ability
for
someone
to
pick
up
their.
You
know,
take
out
food
or
designate
a
place
or
two
for
those
extra
six
bikes
that
we
just
some
that
may
come
out
on
the
street
or
allow
businesses.
I
The
the
comment
I
was
going
to
make
was
about
the
construction,
cones
and
and
I
do
believe,
Tyrone
that
even
over
time
with
Upper
King
Street,
you
always
have
people
coming
in
from
out
of
town
or
hadn't
been
to
King
Street
in
a
year,
and
they
show
up
they
they're
not
going
to
know
so
I
believe
you're
always
going
to
need
to
put
something
there
in
the
parking
space
to
to
help
deter
them
from
parking
there.
Could
we
find
something
other
than
a
construction
cone?
I
Maybe
a
potted
plant,
maybe
I,
don't
know
what
the
answer
is,
something
that
would
look
nicer.
I
mean
it
it's
working,
but
it
almost
looks
like
a
construction
zone.
You
know
when
you're
going
down
the
street
now
and
there's
80
cones
down
the
street,
so
I
don't
have
the
answers,
but
would
would
like
to
welcome
some
conversation
and
brainstorming
about
where
goes
from
here.
G
B
B
And
once
we
realized
that
it
could
have
possibly
turned
into
something
hostile,
law
enforcement
was
able
to
come
in
and
assist
us,
and
the
parking
officers
have
two
off-duty
police
officers
assigned
to
them
on
Thursday,
Friday
and
Saturday
nights,
and
that's
helped
tremendously.
We
had
zero
problems,
since
that's.
G
N
Hey
everyone,
so
I
haven't
heard
anyone
who
has
pushed
back
against
the
program
and
concept,
something
we're
talking
about
the
phasing
of
the
program
and
how
this
is
going
to
work
over
time.
There
is
a
desire
to
have
it
start
later,
so
we're
we're
working
to
see
what's
feasible
and
what
we'll
still
get
the
results
that
we
want.
But
it's
something
that
we're
talking
about
as
a
working
group.
How
can
we
Implement
that.
N
M
F
Other
questions
or
comments
I'd,
just
like
take
a
moment
to
Lieutenant
bruter
and
Mr
Lawrence
Mr
Sullivan
the
whole
team.
It's
if
you
haven't
gone
up
and
watched
this
operation,
it's
really
pretty
good,
amazing,
amazingly
efficient
operation
and
by
the
way
our
staff
has
been
very
enthusiastic
and
sort
of
happy
to
be
part
of
it,
because
they've
seen
what
a
difference
it's
made
made
up
there
and
I
think
that
makes
a
difference
in
the
whole
notion
of
how
people
perceive
it
on
King
Street.
F
F
F
F
Clearly,
this
is
going
to
be
an
organic
process
and
I
think
the
timing.
The
times
I've
heard
that
same
thing
for
Meg
I'm
sure
you
have
two
about
when
we
started
sort
of
lessening
what
it
looks
like
all
that
will
will
come
as
we
sort
of
work
through
this
I
would
like
to
point
out
the
starting
January
1st.
The
bid
that
we
voted
to
put
in
place
became
active
and
is
slowly
getting
funded,
and
the
first
thing
that
they're
going
to
put
out
on
the
streets
is
their
ambassador
program.
F
So
we
will
have
people
walking
on
the
streets,
letting
people
know
about
this.
In
addition
to
the
police
team,
that's
out
there
and
our
parking
enforcement
officers
and
our
tourism
Enforcement
Officers.
So
a
lot
of
communication
back
and
forward
and
we'll
get
feedback,
I
think
from
the
businesses
about
some
ways
that
we
might
be
able
to
tweak
this.
But
first
and
foremost
this
is
public
safety
issue
and
and
Captain
Bruder
and
his
team
have
really
gotten
behind.
This
was
I
really
was
happy
to
hear.
F
Excellent,
so
the
whole
thing
is
really
working
great.
You
ought
to
go
up
and
watch
the
operation
at
something
and
we'll
just
sort
of
see
how
it
goes
all
right.
We're
right
on
schedule
is
there
any
other
question
comment
anything
else
that
needs
to
come
before
this
committee.
If
not,
we
will
call
ourselves
adjourn.
Thank
you
very
much
really.
