C
B
A
Have
a
quorum
welcome
to
the
Monday
April
27th
meeting
of
the
Evanston
City
Council
first
and
the
agenda
I
would
like
to
call
the
public
hearing
to
order
and
open
the
public
hearing
I'd
like
Johanna
niden
of
Economic
Development,
to
give
a
summary
of
public
notices
and
conformance
to
the
Illinois
statute.
Good.
D
The
second
item
is
to
publish
public
notice
in
a
newspaper
of
local
circulation
and
a
notice
was
printed
in
the
Evanston
review
on
April
in
the
April
9th
edition,
and
the
law
states
that
the
notice
of
public
hearing
must
be
printed
in
newspaper
in
a
newspaper
not
less
than
15
days
prior
to
the
hearings.
So
we
have
complied
on
both
counts
on
that.
So
I
would
turn
it.
E
This
is
Malika
Turley,
the
president
of
Main
Street
and
Jessica
old
I'm,
the
vice
president
of
Main
Street,
so
I'd
like
to
introduce
and
talk
a
bit
about
the
committee
that
helped
to
set
up
the
do
the
exploration
for
the
SSA
and
talk
a
bit
briefly
about
their
responsibilities
as
business
owners
and
property
owners.
And,
if
you're
here,
if
you
could
please
stand
any
members
of
the
committee,
Sean
schinsky
from
Goods
of
Evanston,
is
both
a
business
owner
and
a
property
owner
christopher
Jacquet
from
christopher
dekat.
E
Fine
jewelry
is
a
business
owner
and
property
owner
Richard
Fisher
from
the
auto
barn.
Also
on
the
committee.
A
business
owner
and
property
owner
Jaime
Leonardi
from
Chicago
Dempster
area
is
also
a
business
owner.
Don
oka
motto
also
from
Chicago
dumpster
is
a
business
owner,
jessica,
ladanyi.
Also
a
business
owner
myself,
I
own
Squeezebox
books,
Roby
Sussman
from
vogue
favics
is
a
business
owner
and
property
owner
John.
Sosnick
is
on
the
committee
as
a
resident
representative
and
Malik
truly
representative
of
hip
circle,
studio,
so
the
process
to
date.
E
So
far,
last
year
we
went
around
and
collected
signatures
of
more
than
60
business
owners
and
landlords
to
help
push
along
the
notion
of
the
SSA.
The
merchants
and
the
property
owners
requested
the
city
to
explore
the
SSA
for
the
area
which
you
graciously
issued,
the
RFP
for
the
SSA
consultant
of
which
place
consulting
was
hired.
Then
our
steering
committee
was
founded
and
it's
evenly
balanced
from
members
of
Main
Street
organization
and
the
Chicago
Dempster
organization,
along
with
some
residents
as
well
into
2015.
E
E
Certainly
it
will
help
to
create
a
thriving
commercial
area
by
connecting
these
two
districts
and
unifying
them
via
the
corridor
of
Chicago
Avenue.
We
hope
to
generate
more
business
activity,
build
an
increased
awareness
through
marketing
through
of
all
the
businesses.
There
certainly
help
improve
streetscape
elements,
beautify
the
neighborhood
make
it
a
more
pleasant
place
to
be
create
more
events
improve
some
of
the
events
that
we've
done
already
build
on
the
events
and
certainly
less
burden
on
the
volunteers.
F
Good
evening,
I'm
Kimberly
bears
from
place
consulting
just
quickly
to
provide
you
some
visual
context.
This
is
a
map
of
nearby
s
essays.
So
obviously
you
have
s
essay
number
four
here
in
downtown
Evanston,
but
there
are
s
essays
in
other
competitive
areas.
What
we've
shown
here
is
a
map
of
SFA's
in
the
city
of
Chicago.
F
There
are
53
special
service
areas
in
the
city
of
Chicago
to
date,
and
you
know
that
there
are
s
essays
in
Oak
Park
in
Naperville
and
of
other
competitive
cities
for
for
Evanston,
in
terms
of
the
benefits
of
an
SSA.
Tim
has
touched
on
those.
So
I
won't
read
this
for
you,
but
suffice
it
to
say
competitive
advantage,
sustainable
source
of
funding,
ability
to
have
reliable
programming
that
isn't
dependent
on
good
weather,
for
a
festival,
for
example,
or
the
ability
of
people
to
contribute.
When
you
pass
the
Hat.
G
Hi
I
am
Malik
Turley
from
hip
circle
studio
and
the
president
of
Main
Street
merchants.
This
shows
you
the
proposed
area
for
the
SSA.
It
does
stretch
across
both
of
the
merchants
districts,
the
existing
merchants
districts
and
goes
west
just
a
little
bit
along
Main
Street
and
just
a
little
bit
on
Dempster.
G
And
we
have
created
a
vision
statement
for
the
SSA,
and
that
is
that
the
SSA
is
a
vibrant
and
inviting
destination
full
of
diverse
neighborhood
charm
and
unique
shopping,
dining
business
and
entertainment,
just
steps
from
trains
and
the
lakefront.
So,
given
all
of
that,
we
at
our
community
meetings
asked
for
feedback
on
what
would
be
done
with
SSA
funding.
G
Were
we
to
have
it,
and
this
is
an
example
of
the
way
that
we
ask
that
question
of
our
constituents
and
you
can
see
along
the
side
that
we
had
representative
participation
from
business
owners,
commercial
property
owners
residents
and
then
a
few
other
individuals
who
were
interested
and
looking
at
those
numbers.
The
primary
pieces
that
were
desired
were
the
advertising
and
promotions
area
as
well
as
public
way
aesthetics
and
publicly
maintenance.
So
those
three
areas
were
the
most
compelling
to
the
people
in
the
area.
F
The
committee
took
that
that
feedback
and
input
and
translated
it
into
near-term
priorities
and
then
proposed
five-year
budget,
so
in
terms
of
near
term
priorities
looking
to
get
money
out
on
the
street
in
terms
of
capital
expenditures,
so
landscaping
and
planters
and
those
kinds
of
things
wayfinding,
signage,
creating
a
website
that
would
promote
and
market
the
neighborhood
and
then
ultimately
doing
some
business
development.
So
you'll
see
that
represented
in
this
2016
to
2020
budget.
F
So
the
in
2016
you
can
see
the
largest
by
far
the
largest
expenditure
is
on
public
way
aesthetics
and
we
will
get
into
a
breakdown
of
what
each
of
these
categories
is
moving
forward
for
advertising
and
promotion
and
interest
in
spending
money
on
some
existing
events,
but
also
potentially
adding
new
events.
As
the
committee
members
mentioned,
the
work
that's
being
done
right
now
is
being
done
all
by
volunteers
and
there's
quite
a
bit
of
stress
on
them
to
run
these
events,
in
addition
to
running
their
businesses,.
F
Look
public
weigh
maintenance,
keeping
the
district
free
of
litter
and
free
of
snow
and
every
other
year,
engaging
in
public
sidewalk
cleaning
and
then
business
development
fairly
modest
after
the
first
year,
and
then
that
ramps
up
in
subsequent
years
once
the
district
has
been
improved.
There's
a
real
desire
on
the
part
of
the
SSA
committee
to
engage
in
very
proactive,
targeted
business
recruitment.
F
Lastly,
administration
working
with
the
Economic
Development
Department,
the
department
has
indicated
that
they
would
be
willing
to
staff
the
SSA
for
the
first
two
years,
and
so
that
allows
the
SSA
to
keep
its
administrative
costs
very,
very
low.
And
you
can
see
a
break
out
here.
That
number
does
go
up
in
2018
with
the
anticipated
hiring
of
a
staff
member.
F
So
this
slide
is
perhaps
the
most
technical
slide
that
we
have.
It
illustrates
what
the
the
possible
mismatch
might
be
between
a
growing
budget
and
somewhat
reserved
revenue,
and
so
looking
at
four
different
scenarios
of
combinations
of
low
inflation,
high
inflation,
low
eav
growth,
high
eav
growth.
When
we
ran
our
numbers,
we
recommended
in
the
the
committee
agreed
that
a
tax
rate
cap
of
0.45
percent
for
the
life
of
the
SSA
was
something
that
was
a
conservative
number
and
yet
also
gave
the
SSA
some
room
to
grow
its
budget.
In
case
revenue
did
not
grow.
C
H
Evening,
Jessica
well
Danny
I'm
a
main
street
business
owner.
So
what
we
want
to
talk
about
here
is
a
little
bit
about
the
governance
and
management
structure
of
the
SSA.
Obviously,
City
Council
is
aware
of
how
the
ordinance
works,
but
for
the
members
of
the
public
that
may
not
be
aware
the
city
establishes
a
tax
rate
cap
boundaries
within
the
SSA,
the
time
frame
and
the
eligible
services
that
the
SSA
can
perform
and
then
there's
a
governing
board.
H
H
They
plan
for
the
governing
body
is
that
there
would
be
four
seats
represented
by
what
is
now
considered
the
Main
Street
Merchants
Association,
four
seats
from
the
Chicago
Dempster's
Association
and
one
resident,
and
then
there
would
be
two
City
seats.
Essentially
a
public
works
director
or
someone
else
that
is
a
designee
and
a
city
manager
or
a
designated.
These
would
both
be
non-voting
seats.
The
members
on
the
governing
body
could
serve
no
more
than
two
consecutive
terms
and
in
the
beginning
we
would
stagger
the
terms
eventually
they
would
all
be
two-year
terms.
H
They
would
start
out
with
some
two-year
in
some
three-year
terms
for
managing
the
SSA
work
plan.
You
saw
in
the
budget
that
the
initial
capital
expenditures
are
quite
significant
for
the
first
couple
of
years,
and
we
don't
have
a
lot
of
money
in
the
beginning
that
we
are
willing
to
spend
on
the
staff,
although
that
eventually
becomes
significant.
So
the
economic
development
department
has
generously
agreed
to
provide
us
with
a
staff
member
for
the
first
couple
of
years
to
implement
the
SSA
work
plan.
H
After
that,
we
assess
our
staffing
needs
at
about
the
18-month
mark
and
determine
permanent
staffing
needs.
The
SSA
governing
body
is
something
that
we've
all
been
very
thoughtful
and
careful
about.
We
are
all
quite
committed
to
creating
a
democratic
and
transparent
process
regarding
who
participates
on
the
governing
body.
We
are
still
in
the
process
of
establishing
that
set
up.
H
One
of
our
concerns
is
that
we
have
to
be
able
to
manage
it
efficiently
and
handle
a
voting
process,
but
we
also
want
people
from
all
over
within
the
district,
who
are
business,
owners,
property
owners
and
stakeholders
to
be
able
to
have
a
chance
to
serve.
So
that
is
what
we're
looking
at
right
now
and
although
it's
not
set
where
we're
all
very
committed
to
it
and.
F
Lastly,
in
terms
of
next
steps,
this
becomes
City
Council
process
from
this
point
on,
as
Jessica
mentioned,
where
may
may
or
may
not
have
mentioned.
Actually
we
have
one
more
Advisory
Committee
meeting
with
the
folks
that
have
served
on
the
advisory
committee
and
police
consulting
and
the
city
staff
at
which,
at
which
time
the
committee
will
take
another
look
and
and
iron
out
that
governing
and
governance
and
management
process.
But
at
this
point
it
is
a
City
Council
process.
So
that
concludes
our
presentation.
A
I
C
A
A
J
My
name
is
Arlene
Broome
look,
I,
have
an
antique
store,
1243
Chicago,
a
vanilla,
Nevison
I've,
been
there
43
years
very
proud
of
that
love
the
city
event
soon
love
everything
about
our
community
I.
Don't
I'm
against
this,
because
I
don't
feel
that
the
landlord's
should
I'm,
both
I'm
the
landlord
and
him
a
business
there
and
I
don't
feel
the
landlord
should
have
to
be
supporting
this
fully.
J
It
is
really
gonna.
It's
gonna
help
the
business
owners
more
than
anything
else
and
I
thinks
maybe
there's
a
way
that
the
business
owners
can
be
part
of
the
expense
of
this.
They
don't
realize
that
if
the
landlords
are
all
taking
the
expense
of
this,
that
they're
gonna
pass
it
on
in
the
rents
to
the
tenants
and
I
think
it's
very
important
that
they
realized
that
and
I
don't
need
think
we
need
two
hundred
thousand
dollars
worth
of
improvements.
J
Well,
the
things
that
are
listed
are
very
vague
in
the
left,
a
letter
from
the
city
saying
what
they
want.
They
wanted
to
improve
the
landscaping.
I,
don't
know
what
that
is.
They're
gonna
do
the
holiday
installation
of
the
lighting.
Well,
it's
not
anywhere
near
even
part
of
two
hundred
thousand
dollars
and
we
have
a
whole
warehouse
full
of
Christmas
things
that
weren't
used
because
dumpster
merchants
couldn't
afford
them
and
put
up
so
I
know,
there's
a
ton
of
Christmas
stuff.
J
The
public
way
is
set
of
improvements.
I
mean
that's
way
today,
wait,
wait,
dining
signage
again,
that's
two,
and
if
they're
planning,
advertising
and
marketing
of
the
business
district
I
think
that's
a
great
idea,
but
you
can
also
get
a
lot
of
advertising
and
free
advertising
for
two
hundred
thousand
dollars
and
I.
Don't
like
the
fact
that
they
say
it's
for
an
indefinite
period
of
time,
I,
don't
think
that's
right
either.
J
The
part
of
the
thing
that
is
bad
in
our
area
is
the
El
station.
I
mean
that
we
have
the
worst
el
station
in
Evanston
and
nothing's
ever
been
done
about
that,
and
that's
not
our
problem.
That's
the
city's
problem
and
Metra
and
whoever
our
CTA
or
whatever
and
I
think
combining
Main
Street
in
Chicago
dumpsters
Chicago
area
is
a
very
bad
idea,
I
think
they're
very
too
far
from
each
other.
J
If
you
look
at
places
like
Naperville,
that
Bette
did
do
this,
it's
a
more
condensed
area
and
people
can
walk
from
one
place
to
the
other.
No
one's
going
to
walk
from
Dempster
to
Main
Street
I
mean
few
very
few.
People
walk
that
far
so
I
think
I
know
why
they're
doing
it,
because
there's
the
big
properties
on
Chicago
Avenue,
with
stores
on
the
bottom
that
are
all
going
to
have
to
pay
for
this
and
I
know
it's
more
revenue,
but
I
just
think
it's
a
bad
idea
to
combine
the
two
areas.
J
So
that's
mostly
what
I
and
also
Naperville,
if
you
look
online,
spent
over
a
million
dollars
to
fix
up
their
area
and
if
it's
going
to
cost
us
a
million
dollars.
A
lot
of
people
are
gonna,
go
away,
property
owners
that
are
going
to
leave
because
it's
way
way
too
much
money.
We
don't
need
it.
Thank.
K
L
L
It
just
seems
very
vague
when
we
talk
about
landscaping
when
we
talk
about
marketing
I'd
like
to
see
more
specificity
before
property
taxes
which
are
already
at
their
all-time
high,
are
added
to
go
higher
I'd
like
to
see
what
the
marketing
is,
what
the
landscaping
is
going
to
be
just
more
specificity
and
then,
if,
if
it
looks
like
it's
something,
that's
viable,
then
I'm
for
it,
but
right
now,
I
just
hear
a
lot
of
vague
generalities.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
M
Garage
hi,
madam
mayor
members
of
the
City
Council,
my
name
is
Rogi
I
own
Volk
fabrics
on
Main,
Street
and
I
do
want
to
take
a
moment
to
address
some
of
these
issues
that
have
been
brought
up.
I
understand
that
their
people
are
concerned,
about
things
being
vague
and
within
our
meetings
we
have
discussed
these
in
detail.
This
wasn't
really
the
forum
to
bring
those
up
and
the
meetings
are
open.
M
You
see
the
signs
that
are
clearly
marked
in
the
benches
and
the
things
that
are
just
so
inviting
something
unified
and
unifying
the
corridor,
making
it
something
that
has
its
own
identity,
making
it
marketable
things
for
advertising
like
with
Highland
Park,
how
they
did
some
advertising
over
the
winter
for
the
holiday
season
having
something
that
reaches
beyond
our
community
to
bring
the
people
to
our
area
so
that
people
in
other
cities,
Morton
Grove
in
Chicago,
will
say:
hey
look
at
this
part
of
Evanston.
How
cool
is
that?
M
How
neat
is
that
we
can
spend
some
time
shopping
there
and
exploring
it.
So
it's
something
that's
really.
We
have
gotten
into
the
specifics.
Even
with
the
holiday
decorating.
We've
addressed
some
of
those
issues.
How
right
now
we
don't
have
functioning
light
outlets,
so
we
would
need
to
you
know,
have
some
of
these
things
addressed
and
different
kinds
of
decorations.
So
these
are
things
that
we
are
discussing.
We
have
come
up
with
a
lot
of
ideas
and
I'm
sure
that
somebody
in
our
notes,
we
can
bring
them
up.
M
A
A
You
very
much
all
right,
I,
think
that
concludes
public
comments
and
discussion.
So
seeing
no
one
else,
who
wishes
to
speak
I'd
like
to
close
the
meeting
and
go
back
to
the
City
Council
meeting
and
the
first
item
on
the
council
meeting
is
the
mayor's
public
announcements
and
proclamations
and
I
have
a
proclamation.
A
And
whereas
city
employees
represent
the
city
government
in
their
day
to
day
interactions
with
citizens
and
whereas
the
citizens
of
Evanston
deserve
a
high
quality
professional,
responsive
public
service
today
and
in
the
future,
and
whereas
to
maintain
a
high
quality
and
professional
public
service
for
future
generations.
The
city
must
attract
and
retain
talented
people
with
the
required
skills
and
who
will
use
those
skills
and
service
to
the
people
of
Evanston.
A
Now,
therefore,
I
Elizabeth
Thetis
doll
mayor
of
the
city
of
Evanston
do
hereby
proclaim
May
3rd
through
9th
2015,
as
Evanston
public
service
recognition
week
and
commend
all
city
employees
for
delivering
quality
public
service.
All
citizens
are
encouraged
to
recognize
the
accomplishments
and
contributions
of
public
employees
in
providing
responsive
and
effective
government
for
Evanston
Cindy.
N
Mayor
members,
the
council
good
evening
we're
here
this
evening
in
addition
to
recognize
a
public
service
week,
also
to
recognize
those
employees
of
long
tenured
service
with
the
city,
Marti
Lyons,
the
assistant
city
manager
and
chief
financial
officer.
This
here
I
think
Marta.
You
had
some
initial
comments
and
we'll
get
voll
very
good.
Then
we'll
move
right
on
we're
here
tonight
to
recognize
those
employees
of
the
city
with
at
least
25
years
of
service.
Celebrating
this
year,
we'd
like
to
start
first
with
the
city
manager's
office,
Martha,
Logan
and
mayor
too.
N
So
if
you
could
help
with
that
and
Marty,
could
you
serve
as
proxy?
For
me,
Martha
is
the
our
Community
Engagement
Manager,
a
long
tenured
service
and
our
parks,
recreation.
Community
services
department
has
been
with
the
city
manager's
office
for
the
last
several
years.
Martha!
Congratulations
on
your
25
years.
N
N
Not
with
us
from
the
police
department
also
25
years,
Angela
Williams
from
our
neighborhood
enforcement
team
at
25
years
from
the
fire
department
and
not
with
us
as
Tom
Janette
Sookie,
who
you
all
know
also
from
fire,
Michael
McDonald
at
30
years
and
Peter
Casey
at
30
years.
Let's
give
them
both
a
round
of
applause.
I'm.
Sorry.
N
N
N
N
Also
from
Parks
and
Recreation,
not
with
us
this
evening
at
25
years
of
services,
Jim
Farrar,
who
runs
our
beaches
next
from
the
library,
neither
employees
unfortunately,
are
here
with
us
this
evening,
Laura
Hirschfeld,
an
adult
services
librarian
celebrating
35
years
with
the
city
of
Evanston.
Let's
give
her
a
round.
N
N
N
We
do
need
to
tell
you
at
some
other
time
about
mr.
Ferrara's
performance.
We
did
take
your
sons
and
daughters
to
work
a
week
event
last
week
last
what
was
a
Thursday
and
we
brought
our
the
sons
and
daughters
of
our
employees
through
a
variety
of
different
municipal
functions
and
mr.
farrar
prosecutor?
No
excuse
me
represented
the
big
bad
wolf
and
he.
N
A
A
N
A
few
madam
mayor,
first
of
all,
earlier
this
evening
we
did
celebrate
the
city
receiving
the
United
States
earth
our
capital
award
and
want
to
thank
all
the
staff
and
members
of
the
community
that
were
involved
in
that
honor.
So
we're
very
excited
about
that.
We
provided
the
council
members
of
the
public,
some
new
pins
and
recognition
of
this
honor.
We
have
made
pins
for
every
single
city
staff
member,
so
those
will
be.
Everyone
will
be
getting
one
of
those
to
celebrate
that.
N
Also
this
past
weekend
we
had
a
number
of
events:
the
the
spring
Ice
Show
at
the
Crown
Center,
which
was
I,
understand
a
great
success,
but
we
also
had
our
make
a
second
annual
clean
up
Evanston
event
where,
despite
threatening
leather,
had
about
200
volunteers
around
the
city,
cleaning
up
trash
and
we'll
have
more
specifics
on
the
the
tonnage
and
all
of
that
at
some
later
point,
but
don't
want
to
thank
all
the
staff
involved
with
our
Public
Works
Department,
the
sustainability
office
with
that
and
madam
mayor.
That
concludes
my
comments.
Thank.
B
A
O
Junaid
risky
once
again
no
money
for
Harley
Clark,
but
two
million
dollars
in
taxpayer
money
for
a
grocery
store.
That
is
two
million
dollars
in
free
money
to
a
grocery
store
tonight.
Once
again,
we
have
what
I
would
call
in
professional
work.
That
is,
the
memo
presented
by
staff
is
its
convoluted.
The
problem
is,
this
is
acceptable
to
the
council,
but
it's
because
this
council
doesn't
have
a
set
of
standard,
that's
really
of
highest
standards
for
information.
O
The
four
point:
nine
mill,
the
four
point:
nine
million
dollars
of
credit-
is
a
complete
mess-
is
presented
anyone
reading
this
has
no
understanding
of
what
it
is.
What
it
amounts
to
is
the
city's
borrowing
short-term
money
to
give
to
a
food
store
two
million
dollars,
basically
of
our
money.
To
me,
this
is
outrageous
based
on
TIF
revenue.
O
One
thing
one
has
to
think
the
reason
we
have
such
an
unprofessional
work
here
is:
basically,
we
don't
really
know
what's
going
on,
but
part
of
the
reason
is
we
don't
know
what's
going
on?
Is
the
city
really
doesn't
want
to
tell
us
what's
going
on,
because
if
we
understood
what's
going
on
more
people
would
possibly
be
outraged
by
some
of
this
council
members
haven't
really
learned
for
us
from
from
their
last
mistakes,
chicken
and
waffles
the
next
theater
the
knife
store
that
was
here,
the
coffee
shop
on
Howard.
O
All
these
things
have
gone
south
and
failed
basically
and
we're
stuck
paying
the
bills
for
these
things.
Really
it's
really.
The
city
managers
are
setting
the
standard.
Unfortunately,
not
the
staff
is
such
really.
Of
course,
council
members
are
part
of
this
I.
Remember
we
called
one
council
member,
saying
I,
don't
understand
what's
going
on
at
the
water
department,
but
I
think
everything's,
okay!
Well,
it
should
we
understand,
what's
going
on,
I
think
that's
important.
O
We
spend
so
much
time
on
awards
here,
whether
it's
four
point,
nine
million
dollars
will
be
probably
get
approved
as
consent
agenda,
with
no
discussion
and
no
a
public
understanding.
Actually,
if
you
want
to
see
professional
work,
I
suggest
you
look
at
what
miss
Lin
wall
recently
sent
you
on
Harley
Clark.
That
was
her
tax
analysis
that
is
professional
work.
Frankly,
done
in
a
professional
manner
with
logical
conclusions
and
what's
going
on,
and
unfortunately
we
don't
have
that
here,
but
what
I
found
interesting
was
live.
O
Miss
Lin
wall
said
any
options
on
harley
clark:
two-bit
develop,
it
are
basically
a
bust,
but
the
last
thing
she
said
that
I
really
found
interesting
than
some
of
us
ought
to
start
investigating.
Most
of
these
economic
development
activities
are
bust
and
that's
very
interesting
to
me.
On
friday
I
did
send
some
comments
into
Harley
clark.
Unfortunately,
some
of
my
things
have
been
misquoted
in
the
public
minutes.
I
never
said
secure
the
building.
O
What
I
said
is
the
building
needs
to
be
maintained
and
operated,
so
it
can't
be
destroyed
by
the
city
and
I
will
say
that
again,
shutting
down
the
building
would
be
very
dangerous.
I
believe
the
building
should
be
used
again
on
a
limited
basis
this
summer
for
the
ecology
center
and
other
things,
spending
nine
hundred
thousand
dollars
on
to
fog
houses
at
$800.
A
square
foot
is
a
real
outrage
of
taxpayer
money
and
well.
Harley
Clark
sits
there
with
vacant
classrooms
and
City
Council
members
want
to
close
it.
O
A
P
P
We
serve
the
children
of
the
world
and
we
serve
the
children
of
our
local
communities.
Governor
rauner
has
proclaimed
this
Saturday
May,
2nd
as
Kiwanis
Day
in
Illinois,
and
because
we
don't
accept,
we
give
Kewanee.
Uns
have
been
supporting
the
YMCA
Camp
independence
and
English
at
Illinois,
and
over
two
hundred
thousand
dollars
has
been
raised
for
a
playground
for
children
with
spina
bifida
at
camp
independence
and
international
Kiwanis
President
John
button
will
be
there
to
dedicate
this
wonderful,
great
playground
for
children
with
spina,
bifida
and
neurological
diseases.
P
The
Evanston
Kiwanis,
Club,
I'm,
happy
to
say,
is
doing
well.
We
raised
and
distributed
over
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
in
the
past
three
years
and,
of
course
we
support
all
youth
organizations
in
this
community,
be
it
y-o-u,
Evanston
youth,
baseball
child
care
network
and
go
down
the
list
just
like
the
other
organizations
do,
and
we
are
very
proud
what
we
do
and
I
would
just
throw
out
that
I
think
all
the
service
organizations
in
this
community
could
use
some
additional
membership
for
Kiwanis.
P
It's
organizations
like
these,
like
Kiwanis
and
Rotary
and
whatnot
that
are
helping
to
make
the
difference
so
again,
May
2nd
up
at
Camp
independence
and
Ingalls
Illinois
a
celebration
and
if
any
of
you
can
make
it
up
there,
we'd
love
to
have
you
for
the
dedication
of
the
spina
bifida
playground.
Thank
you.
Thank.
Q
Gene
Lind
wall,
you
should
have
all
have
received
a
copy
of
the
taxing
pact
analysis
that
I
submitted
to
the
Harley
Clark
Committee.
Last
week,
as
I
noted
in
my
email,
the
sale
and
redevelopment
of
the
Harley
Clark
property
will
not
provide
a
noticeable
property
tax
savings
for
Evanston
residents,
retention
and
reuse
of
the
Harley
Clark
of
Harley
Clark
need
not
represent
a
significant
burden
either.
However,
that's
not
what
I
want
to
talk
about
tonight.
Q
A
few
months
ago,
I
prepared
a
five-year
equalized
assessed
value
trend,
analysis
for
the
71st
and
Stony
Island
special
service
area
in
Chicago's,
South
Shore
neighborhood
between
2009
and
2013.
The
equalized
assessed
value
of
this
district
decreased
by
6.4
percent.
The
decrease
was
largely
the
result
of
a
21%
decrease
in
the
Cook
County
multiplier,
which
is
applied
to
assessed
values
to
calculate
equalized,
assessed
value
and
the
tax
base
of
the
district.
The
the
decrease
in
the
multiplier
was
offset
by
a
modest
amount
of
new
residential
development.
Q
I
was
curious
to
see
how
Evanston
compared
since
the
city
has
been
actively
working
to
attract
new
residential
towers
and
mixed-use
buildings
for
the
last
two
decades.
In
order
to
expand
the
tax
base,
well,
Evanston
did
a
good
job
of
keeping
the
property
tax
levy.
Steady,
Evanston's
tax
base
declined
by
thirty
three
point:
four
percent
between
2009
and
2013,
a
far
greater
drop
that
can
be
explained
by
the
21%
reduction
in
the
multiplier
well
met,
has
not
seen
the
type
of
residential
development
that
Evanston
has
actually
actively
sought
between
2009
and
2013.
Q
We'll
Mets
tax
base
declined
by
thirty
three
point:
zero
percent
slightly
less
than
Evanston's
decline.
My
questions
for
you
are
these:
why
haven't
all
of
the
new
Evanston
buildings
resulted
in
an
increased
tax
base
or
at
least
mitigated
the
decline
in
the
multiplier?
How
our
Evanston
residents
benefiting
from
the
City
Council's
economic
development
approach
that
focuses
so
heavily
on
new
real
estate
development?
Is
it
possible
that
the
city,
the
city's
economic
development
policies,
are
dampening
market
values,
for
existing
properties?
Q
R
Priscilla
Giles
I,
don't
report
to
know
the
statistics,
but
I
wonder
what
happened
to
the
Evanston
that
attracted
new
residents
and
that
made
multi-generational
families
decide
to
stay
here.
What
seems
to
happen
is
the
city
is
for
sale
developers
paid
they
way-hey
their
way
out
of
providing
housing
for
people
who
have
been
in
Evanston
for
generations,
young
people
who
are
just
starting
out
and
for
seniors
now
on
fixed
incomes.
Somehow
every
green
space
is
being
sold
for
unaffordable
housing
for
those
aforementioned
residents.
R
How
long
before
Evanston,
formerly
known
as
the
city
of
parks
is
past
history
and
now
city
of
the
rich
and
diversified
only
by
those
living
and
luxury
apartments
of
luxury
housing
and
subsidized
senior
apartments,
not
to
figure
to
forget
that
there
is
money
to
pave
a
walking
path
over
a
mile
long,
but
not
enough
money
to
replace
the
circle
in
front
of
Fleetwood
Jourdain
that
serves
not
only
seniors
but
youth
who
may
temporarily
be
crutches
and
the
permanently
physically
challenged.
Thank
You
Hana.
Thank.
A
S
S
This
is
with
80
extra
units
at
nearby
Tod,
Central
Station.
Three
little
noticed
and
poorly
described
meetings
were
held
last
week
regarding
the
city,
the
parking
problems
on
Central
Street.
The
city
has
barely
begun
to
understand.
The
breadth
of
the
problem
residents
are
being
denied
parking,
employees
can't
find
it,
and
customers
can't
find
it.
The
problem
is
real,
it
is
now
and
it
should
not
be
added
to
with
the
inadequate
parking
provided
on
site
at
16:20.
By
the
way
central
stations
garage
is
full
and
new
residents.
Cars
are
spilling
out
into
the
neighborhood.
S
A
T
It
is
not
clear
and
probably
did
not
include
fill-in
of
the
foundation
and
surface
grading,
to
a
condition
that
the
new
open
space
could
be
used
for
public
purposes.
That
would
be
useful
information.
My
two
other
requests
were
not
fulfilled
and
again
I.
Ask
that
you
direct
the
city
manager
to
provide
the
committee
with
the
following
information:
go
back
to
IDNR
and
inquire
as
to
their
current
in
the
current
status
of
their
interest
in
using
the
building
for
the
coastal
management
program.
T
Alderman,
Grover
and
others
met
with
IDNR
director
Rosenthal
during
Evanston
day
in
Springfield,
the
director
Rosenthal
said
he
did
not
know
anything
about
the
proposal.
The
proposed
idea
to
bring
the
coastal
management
program
to
Evanston
he
said
he
would
look
into
the
matter.
I
urge
either
alderman
Grover
or
the
city
manager
to
follow
up
with
director
Rosenthal.
The
committee
can't
continues
to
talk
as
though
it
is
very
possible
that
I,
a
DNR
will
is
still
interested
in
the
building,
but
we
need
to
know
that
information
for
sure.
T
Secondly,
I
asked
again
the
council
direct
the
city
manager
to
provide
the
committee
with
what
it
costs
to
operate.
The
building.
That's
information
that
the
committee
needs
in
order
to
make
an
form
decision
and
I
have
an
additional
request.
The
city
has
permitted
a
contractor
access
to
the
building
to
determine
the
cost
of
rehabilitation
for
some
private
entity.
Several
contractors
have
stated
their
belief
that
the
rehab
costs
being
thrown
around
are
extremely
exaggerated.
T
They
have
asked
for
access
to
the
building
in
and
that
has
been
denied,
please
direct
city
staff
to
arrange
for
these
local
contractors
to
have
access
to
the
building,
to
enable
them
to
make
better
informed
estimates
of
the
cost
of
rehabbing
the
building.
It
is
only
fair.
It
is
also
vital
that
the
committee
have
act
adequate,
reliable,
accurate
information
in
order
to
make
recommendations
to
you.
The
credibility
with
the
public
of
the
committee
and
the
entire
process
will
rest
on
the
perceived
fairness,
transparency
and
completeness
of
the
information
provided.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
U
Hello,
my
name
is
John
Minh
tier
I
live
at
1111,
foster
just
down
the
street
and
around
the
corner
and
I'm
happy
to
have
my
Alderman
here.
I
wanted
to
speak
against
the
RV
parking
change,
which
would
prohibit
parking
of
RVs
on
the
street
I.
Do
it
for
two
reasons:
one
I
have
a
trailer
I,
don't
Park
it
in
Evanston
very
often,
but
I
can
foresee
the
time
when
I
might
park
it
for
a
short
period
of
time
or
it
might
be
longer
than
what
the
change
to
the
ordinance
would
allow.
U
But
I
really
come
to
speak
about
my
neighbor,
who
is
Chuck
Steinbach.
He
lives
across
the
street
from
me.
He
lives
in
a
house
that
his
grandfather
built
so
I
think
probably
the
family
ownership
of
that
house.
Since
the
day
it
was
billed
as
the
oldest
in
Evanston.
His
father
worked
for
the
Evanston
fire
department
and
Chuck
was
a
city
inspector
for
20
years
since
we're
giving
out
awards
for
a
long
time
service
he's
a
veteran
who
has
that
disease.
U
That
I,
don't
remember
the
initials
for,
but
he
has
to
have
oxygen
at
times
he
has
difficulty
breathing
and
he
has
a
not
a
motor
home,
a
van
conversion
unit
with
the
top
on
top
of
it.
He
parks
it
in
front
of
his
house
now
you've
driven
down,
foster
it's
not
a
showplace,
but
there's
nothing
wrong
with
the
street.
U
Well,
if
I
had
that
I
talked
to
the
owner
and
it
seems
to
me,
there
are
ways
not
to
change
the
law
and
I.
Don't
really
see
that
many
RVs
parked
in
Evanston,
maybe
I,
just
don't
get
around
enough
I
feel
like
as
I
get
older
and
I'm
a
senior
too,
that
I'm
being
pushed
more
and
more
to
the
libertarian
point
of
view,
because
if
we
need
a
law
regulating
RV
parking,
when
you
don't
see
any
really
in
Evanston,
I
would
say.
Maybe
we've
got
too
much
government,
but
please
vote
against
this.
Thank
you.
Thank.
V
Hi,
it's
Mary
residence
gate
at
Chancellor.
I
just
have
a
couple
comments
more
than
any
specific
issue.
One
of
the
comments
is
I'm
a
little
concerned
about
some
of
the
maybe
lacks
process
that
were
experiencing
because
we're
doing
so
many
different
things.
Last
week
there
was
the
parking
committee,
the
agenda
and
the
packet
was
not
posted
prior
to
the
meeting
I
understand
by
the
time.
I
got
there
and
that
brought
up.
V
Businesses
want
to
come,
restaurants
are
good
and
there
is
literally
no
place
to
park
and
I'm
not
saying
that
just
because
I
live
a
block
away
from
it,
but
I
feel
bad
for
the
businesses,
because
people
can't
come
and
support
our
tax
base.
If
they
can't
find
a
place
to
support
our
businesses
and
park
their
car
and
then
when
they
do
park
their
car,
if
they're
lucky
to
get
a
chances,
are
they
if
they
stay
for
more
than
two
hours,
they're
going
to
end
up
with
a
ticket?
V
So
I
would
just
really
ask
you
to
consider
the
economic
cycle
of
giving
too
many
allowances.
I
think
the
minimum
that
the
building
where
the
theater
was
should
have
had
was
employee
parking.
We
all
knew
that
there
was
going
to
be
a
restaurant
on
the
corner,
because
we've
lived
in
the
neighborhood
for
20
years.
We
knew
what
was
going
to
probably
happen
there,
your
residents
in
their
neighborhoods,
they
know
their
neighborhood
and
I
was
cleaning
out
my
house
the
other
day,
and
it's
so
funny.
I
felt
this
from
when
we
were
protesting.
V
The
parking
allowance
is
given
there
and
this
was
from
a
memo
from
the
city
of
Evanston,
and
it
says
that
we
understand
the
proposed
1722
central
cent
building
redevelopment
project
will
provide
for
all
its
own
required
parking
on
this
site,
with
the
exception
of
seven
spaces
for
retail
customers
it
doesn't.
There
are
more
than
seven
spaces
currently
available
for
Latin,
64
I,
don't
think,
there's
many
more
left
there
and
there
appears
to
be
sufficient
on
street
parking
for
15
and
1600
Central
Street.
That's
when
it
was
a
48
building,
not
a
72
unit.
V
But
my
point
is:
is
that
we
need
to
have
long-term
vision
when
we
expect
that
something
is
going
to
be
successful,
we
should
plan
for
success,
not
plan
for
problems.
That
being
said,
I
also,
you
know
talk
about
the
Harley,
Clark
and
I'm
concerned
that
the
local
contractors
have
not
been
called
in.
I.
Think
that
we
have
a
in
rebuilding
warehouse.
There
does
a
jobs,
training
program
for
our
people
and
I
think
again
in
the
economic
cycle.
N
Couple
of
comments
both
of
the
sixth
and
seventh
Ward
Alderman
are
not
here
and
certainly
Central.
Street
parking
has
been
an
issue
for
them.
Both
alderman
Grover,
an
alderman.
The
tendon
have
had
a
several
neighborhoods
on
the
subject
of
parking,
and
one
of
the
reasons
that
the
issue
came
before
the
transportation
Working
Committee
is
exactly
as
you
heard
this
evening.
N
The
the
feeling
of
both
Alderman's
is
that
this
is
a
larger
community
issue
and
when
the
city
has
a
larger
community
issue,
it
takes
it
to
one
of
its
42
boards
or
commissions,
and
so
that
was
taken
before
transportation
parking.
There
were
no
issues
with
the
posting
of
the
agenda.
The
agenda
was
posted
according
to
state
law
Hanna.
It
was
on
our
website,
along
with
all
the
other
boards
and
commissions.
Regarding
the
Harley
Clark
mansion.
As
the
council
is
aware,
mayor
Tisdale
has
appointed
a
committee.
N
It
has
been
the
most
transparent
process
in
the
six
years
that
I
have
been
your
city
manager.
We
are
posting
every
single
email
that
is
received
by
the
committee.
We
are
sending
newsletters
out
to
remind
people
about
the
meetings.
Extensive
minutes
are
being
taken,
there
have
been
opportunities
were
able
to
see
the
building.
Every
piece
of
information
has
been
requested
by
the
committee
has
been
provided
period,
and
so
it's
been
a
difficult
process.
N
I
You,
madam
mayor,
well,
mr.
city
manager,
the
only
thing
and
I
agree
with
everything
that
you're
saying,
but
at
the
transportation
parking
committee
there
was
a
discussion
item
as
regarding
the
parking
on
Central
Street,
but
the
presentation
wasn't
wasn't
part
of
the
packet
and
I
think
that
would
have
been
helpful
in
terms
of
getting
the
word
out
to
the
community
of
exactly
what
we
would
be
talking
about
so
in
future.
I
think
that
would
be
really
helpful.
N
Miska
members
of
the
council,
as
you
know,
we
try
to
be
as
diligent
as
we
can
I
know
of
no
other
community
in
America
that
posts
PowerPoint
presentations
prior
to
meetings.
Many
many
do
after
meetings,
but
we
held
ourselves
to
a
higher
standard.
In
doing
that
is
not
always
possible
and
again,
their
works
have
been
extensive
discussions
in
both
the
6th
and
7th
Ward,
so
I
think.
Certainly
we
will
continue
to
endeavor
to
make
those
those
presentations
available
ahead
of
time,
but
that's
not
always
the
case,
but
they're
always
posted
afterwards
and
well.
I
N
Mayor
members
of
the
council
in
your
packet
in
the
interest
of
time,
would
bring
your
attention
to
the
memorandum
from
mr.
Lyons
dealing
with
some
current
budget
issues.
Just
a
second,
we
pulled
this
up
properly.
We'd
be
happy
to
answer
any
specific
questions
that
you
may
have.
Generally,
we
are
doing
I
think
fairly
well,
a
first
first
quarter.
N
We
generally
hesitate
to
come
to
you
first
quarter
only
because
the
numbers
are
not
as
significant
as
we
would
hope
they
would
to
be,
but
you'll
see
in
your
packet,
where
we
are
at
we're
doing
fine
I
think
for
the
first
quarter,
and
certainly
mr.
Lyons
and
I
are
here
to
answer
any
questions
that
you
have
also
included
in
the
packet
is
the
first
quarter
investment
report.
We
really
had
hoped
specifically
to
speak
to
the
remainder
of
the
fiscal
year
and
where
we
see
we
are
at
with
the
state
of
Illinois.
N
The
memorandum
on
page
29
of
your
packet
really
restates
a
number
of
things.
I
know
that
the
City
Council
is
already
aware
of
that.
For
the
current
of
state
fiscal
year,
which
ends
on
June
30,
the
governor,
the
General
Assembly
have
made
adjustments.
Those
adjustments
largely
do
not
impact
cities,
villages
and
towns
in
Illinois.
However,
as
the
state
is
focusing
now
on
budget
preparation
for
fiscal
year,
2016
that
the
state
FISC
we'll
begin
July
1
mr.
N
Lyons
and
I
are
both
very
concerned
that
we
need
to
take
steps
today,
so
that
if
the
state
does
make
adjustments
to
their
budget,
which
will
be
the
final
months
of
our
current
year
budget
that
we
need
to
be
in
a
place
to
do
that.
So
this
evening,
I
am
making
the
following
recommendations
that
we
would
move
forward
with
right
now
in
order
to
prepare
ourselves
for
any
adjustments
that
might
be
necessary.
First
I'm
asking
mr.
N
Lyons
and
members
of
his
team
to
meet
with
our
bargaining
units
regarding
to
possible
furlough
days
that
would
be
taken
before
the
end
of
this
fiscal
year.
One
would
be
on
the
Friday
before
Labor
Day
and
the
other
would
be
on
New
Year's
Eve.
We
believe
we
would
save
approximately
two
hundred
and
fifteen
thousand
dollars
with
each
of
those
furlough
days.
A
part
of
that
is
cash
as
we
have
been
through
this
before.
Unfortunately,
we
have
learned
that
for
the
safety
departments,
police
and
fire,
the
approximate
adjustment
there
is
to
remove
a
day
of
leave.
N
So
that
is
not
a
direct
cash
savings
so
that
direct
cash
savings
would
be
a
hundred
and
fifteen
thousand
dollars.
We
feel
as
prudent
now
to
begin
those
discussions,
so
if
indeed
into
July
or
August,
when
the
state
will
ultimately
adopt
a
fiscal
2016
budget,
there
is
an
impact
that
will
have
an
impact
on
our
current
foursquare,
which
ends
December
31st,
that
we
would
have
some
flexibility
so
recommending
that
we
move
forward
and
have
those
discussions.
If
the
state
does
not
make
adjustments
that
are
significant.
N
Certainly
it
would
not
be
the
intention
to
move
forward
with
those
furlough
days,
but
if
there
those
are
made
that
we
would
have
the
nimbleness
to
to
make
that
adjustment
as
early
as
the
first
Friday
in
September,
2nd
I've
asked
the
city's
budget
team
to
engage
with
all
departments
and
a
much
more
vigorous
budgeting
budget
monitoring
process
than
we
normally
would
this
early
in
the
year.
As
the
council
is
aware,
we've
recently
in
the
last
year
implemented
a
new
online
financial
system
and
the
tools
that
we
have
to
track.
N
Our
budget
are
much
more
fine
than
we've
had
in
previous
years,
but
still
believe
that
if
we
can
stay
very
much
on
top
of
both
revenues
and
expenditures
on
a
departmental
basis,
that
that'll
be
helpful
to
us
and
I'm,
asking
mr.
Lyons
and
mrs.
King
to
move
forward
with
that.
Then
next
is
that
the
department
approval
levels
right
now
department
heads
have
the
ability
to
approve
expenses
after
$5,000
I'm
asking
actually
directing
the
staff
to
make
that
adjustment,
and
so
those
will
not
be
requiring
the
CFO
mr.
N
Lyons
as
approval
versus
approval
at
the
department
level.
We
believe
that
these
steps
make
sense
for
us
it's.
The
last
piece
of
this
is
that
I
would
like
to
read
John
planning
to
reach
out
to
members
of
our
staff.
We'll
have
a
couple
of
staff
meetings
over
the
next
six
or
eight
weeks
to
talk
with
the
city
staff
members
to
see
if
they
can
help
identify
other
cost-saving
measures.
We
have
done
that
in
previous
years
and
have
had
some
success
with
that.
So
I
think
that
that
would
be
a
very
prudent
thing
to
do.
N
It
may
be
the
local
government
distributed
fun
and
maybe
something
else,
but
I
think
in
order
to
make
sure
that
this
has
the
least
impact
on
the
community
and
the
least
impact
on
our
employees
that
these
steps
are
prudent
at
this
time.
So
it
would
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions
and
mr.
Lyons
and
mrs.
King
had
a
very
lovely
presentation.
I
apologize
for
kind
of
skipping
right
through
most
of
that,
but
again
we'd
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
K
W
Alderman
Randi
members
of
council,
the,
since
the
first
quarter,
we
haven't
had
any
major
change.
If
you
may
recall
from
last
year
the
number
one
from
7.9
million
down
to
3.9
million
as
a
Nega
negative
on
our
fund
balances.
So
we
have
that
many
that
much
reserves
beyond
the
cash
in
bank
that
we
have.
We
made
significant
strides
towards
the
new
fund
balance
policy
that
the
council
adopted,
wherein
we
are
looking
to
have
a
percentage
of
cash
as
an
offset
to
what's
in
the
bank.
So
we
are.
W
W
An
answer
to
the
second
part:
no,
an
answer
to
the
first
part.
We
were
all
the
way
into
design
and
as
the
city
manager
provided
a
short
summary
just
yesterday
or
the
additional
recently
we
had
designed
for
laying
the
fiber
optic
cable
to
Main
in
Chicago.
We
had
done
all
the
work
possible
to
meet
with
all
of
the
property
owners
of
the
four
buildings,
and
we
were
at
the
stage
of
putting
everything
in
our
goal
was
to
have
a
bulk
situation
where
the
whole
building
would
get
lit
up
and
none
of
the
property
owners.
W
We
only
had
three
out
of
four
to
go
to
because
meaning
in
Chicago
is
being
built,
but
none
of
the
associations
wanted
to
do
a
bulk.
You
can
have
access
to
everybody,
they
wanted
it
to
be
one-off,
just
go
in
and
try
and
get
people
in,
but
we
had
a
contract
all
set
up
with
both
ispn
and
with
a
isp,
so
an
internet
service
provider.
We
were
all
ready
to
go
to
finish
that
off
this
year,
so.
K
K
N
Street
is
all
activity
that
the
City
Council
has
taken
a
fine
lead
on,
and
so
I
think
that
perhaps
is
not
advised
to
think
that
the
vadik
that
investment
is
not
paying
dividends
now,
and
certainly
the
fiscal
position
we
are
in
I,
think,
will
serve
us
well
and,
as
the
state
makes
changes.
I
think
we're
well
positioned
to
deal
with
them
as
responsibly
as
we
can.
Thank
you,
madam
an
Thank.
N

birthday
man,

you.

Fisk
I
think
you
had
a
mirror.
I
just
had
a
question
I
think
mr.
Munzer
is
probably
gone
for
the
evening,
but
I'm
just
curious
as
to
when,
when
a
development
does
not
meet
the
parking
requirements
that
we
have
is
there
and
it
was
there
any
discussion
on
Central
Street
of
doing
some
underground
parking
that
would
mitigate
the
reduction
in
spaces.
N
I
You
know
I
understand,
I
I
am
generally
interested
in
the
impact
not
only
on
small
businesses
but
also
on
neighborhood
barking.
I
mean
I
tried
to
address
this
a
little
bit
on
the
1571
maple,
which
is
a
much
much
different
parking
problem
than
exists
here.
I
mean
at
least
here
we're
getting
close
to
the
number
of
parking
spaces
that
are
required,
but
so
I
am
concerned
about
the
the
impact
on
neighbors
and
on
Debra
hood
and
about
just
sprawl
of
cars,
but
also
as
a
small
business
owner
outside
of
the
downtown
things
are
much
different.
I
People
expect
to
park
very
close
to
the
businesses
that
they're
visiting.
They
do
a
pretty
good
job
of
this
west
of
Green
Bay
Road
on
Central,
because
there's
a
parking
lot
there
and
generally.
If
you
circle
the
block
a
few
times,
you
can
find
a
space,
but
people
really
do
have
different
expectations.
When
you
go
outside
the
downtown
downtown
people
are
willing
to
walk
a
little
bit
farther.
It's
not
absolutely
necessary
to
have
a
space
right
in
front
of
you,
but
as
you
leave
and
get
into
the
neighborhood
centers,
the
expectations
do
change
a
lot.
