A
In
favor
aye
any
opposed
motion
passes
items
for
consideration,
P
1,
the
housing
and
homelessness,
Commission
and
staff
recommend
approval
renewal
contract
with
metropolitan
tenants
organization
and
lawyers
Committee
for
better
housing
and
then
not
to
exceed
amount
of
$70,000
for
landlord
tenant
services.
The
funding
source
is
in
the
city's,
affordable
housing
fund
landlord
tenant
services.
The
affordable
housing
fund
currently
has
a
cash
balance
of
approximately
900,000.
This
is
for
action.
B
C
I
very
supportive
of
the
Metropolitan
tenants
organization.
However,
on
the
bills
list,
I
asked
for
some
information
and
I
asked
for
their
monthly
reports,
because
I
really
would
like
to
see
the
kind
of
work
they've
been
doing
now.
It
could
have
been
sent
to
us
over
time
and
I
could
have
missed
it
because
in
the
managers
weekly
reports-
and
it
gets
a
little
heavy
when
you're
also
looking
at
your
packet-
and
you
have
600
pages
so
sometimes
I
do
skip
over
some
things
and
I
thought.
The
response
that
I
got
was
pretty
weak.
C
That
sometime
in
no
in
October
I
will
get
their
monthly
report
for
this
past
month
and
that
wasn't
the
answer
to
the
question
that
I
was
looking
for.
So
I
would
very
much
like
in
the
next
this
week.
I
want
all
the
reports
that
submitted
for
this.
This
contract
I
have
no
idea
how
many
clients
are
actually
sitting
down
with
at
the
library
how
many,
how
many
of
what
kind
of
issues
are
being
raised
with
them?
How
many
issues
they're
resolving
I
have
no
idea
and
I
want
to
know
that
this
is
this?
C
A
D
D
I
know
believe
me
and
the
response
wasn't
to
not
supply
the
reports.
It's
just
that
this
carries
us
through
August,
and
so
September
is
the
last
remaining
one.
We
can
give
you
all
the
individual
reports
if
you
would
like
something
they
would
be
in
a
format
that
shows
by
day
and
then
what
the
key
issues
are.
I
just
didn't
know
if
you
wanted
okay,
I'll.
C

A

A
E
Thank
You
alderman
Simmons
members
of
the
committee,
Oh
I'll,
be
brief.
I
just
want
to
actually
acknowledge
the
work
to
get
to
this
point
and
I
want
to
start
with
Karen
singer,
who
is
in
the
office
in
the
chambers,
the
executive
director
of
the
YWCA,
as
well
as
her
staff,
and
it
looks
like
we
have
number
of
volunteers,
go
ahead
and
raise
your
hand.
So
the
committee
can
see
all
in
support
of
this
wonderful
effort
and
I
just
want
to
you
know,
share
with
the
committee.
E
F
F
I
are
incredibly
proud
of
the
service
that
we
give
to
this
organization.
We're
proud
and
excited
about
the
work
that
the
organization
is
doing.
I
grew
up
here,
I
went
to
Dewey
school
Nichols
and
HHS
I
raised
my
girls
here
brought
my
and
my
daughter
is
now
raising
her
family
here.
So
my
roots
in
this
community
run
deep
over
30
years
ago,
when
I
needed
the
YWCA
most
in
the
middle
of
the
night.
My
daughter
and
I
fled
our
home.
F
We
landed
at
the
YWCA
emergency
emergency
shelter
back
then
it
was
called
the
battered
women's
shelter.
The
YWCA
was
a
place.
It
was
a
physical
structure
where
I
felt
safe,
where
I
was
safe.
In
addition
to
the
physical
place,
the
structure,
the
staff
created
a
space,
an
environment
where
the
seeds
of
transformation
of
thriving
and
not
just
surviving
potato.
F
F
It
was
a
place
in
a
space
where
my
body
and
my
spirit
were
both
fed
since
that
time
long
ago,
I
have
built
a
full
and
happy
life
and
I
will
be
forever
grateful
to
the
YWCA
for
what
they
did
for
me
and
my
daughter,
the
white
W
was
truly
a
lifeline
for
me
and
I
know
that
I'm
not
the
only
one
I
can
only
imagine
the
lives.
The
organization
has
changed
over
the
past
80
years
and
I
love
to
picture
and
imagine
an
envision.
F
This
work
and
the
lives
the
YWCA
will
change
as
it
continues
its
work
into
the
next
80
years,
but
it
takes
more
than
visioning.
It
takes
more
than
imagining
to
continue
this
great
work,
the
service
to
support
women
and
girls,
their
healthy
lives,
their
economic
security,
and
to
continue
advancing
civil
rights
and
racial
justice.
We
simply
need
a
better
space,
expanded
facilities
and
reflecting
on
the
shelter
alone.
F
We
turn
away
almost
a
thousand
women
and
children
every
year,
because
we
don't
have
the
physical
space
or
the
capacity
having
better
and
expanded
facilities
will
enable
us
to
continue
to
serve
our
community
and
enable
us
to
better
create
an
environment.
The
space
for
healing
or
their
journey
to
safety,
wholeness
stability
and
transformation
can
begin.
I
stand
here
tonight
on
behalf
of
the
Board
of
Directors,
many
of
whom
are
reside
in
Evanston
or
work
in
Evanston
to
let
you
know
that
this
project
has
our
enthusiastic
support.
F
A
G
G
Stafford
a
40-year
Evanston
resident
and
supporter
of
YWCA
Evanston
North
Shore
as
a
civically
engaged
resident
of
Evanston
I've,
been
honored
to
help
guide
their
campus
expansion
process
as
a
member
of
their
planning
team,
the
board
staff
and
the
campus
expansion
committee,
some
of
whom
are
here
tonight,
have
worked
diligently
over
two
years
to
develop
the
facility
that
our
town
can
be
proud
of
located
in
the
heart
of
Evanston
at
one
of
our
busiest
intersection
intersections.
The
expanded
YWCA
facility
will
reflect
our
community's
commitment
to
ending
racism
and
empowering
women.
G
The
work
of
the
YWCA
is
a
huge
asset
to
Evanston
and
having
a
building
that
is
reflective
and
quality
and
design
to
the
important
mission
driven
work
being
done
sends
a
powerful
message
about
what
we
value
as
a
community.
Ywca
has
made
considerable
effort
to
engage
the
community
in
this
project.
They
started
off
two
years
ago,
inviting
the
input
of
over
a
hundred
community
members
to
imagine
the
Evanston
of
the
future,
what
its
residents
might
need
and
how?
Why
did
WC
a
could
best
meet
those
needs.
G
The
message
that
we
heard
over
and
over
was
that
the
YWCA
is
a
hub.
It
is
a
place
for
the
community
to
come,
learn,
grow,
be
safe,
heal
and
build
community,
and
its
facilities
should
facilitate
this
growing
important
work.
On
top
of
that,
we
have
organized
over
six
neighbor
meetings
to
solicit
feedback
on
the
designs
as
a
result
of
neighbor
feedback.
G
A
A
I
Evening,
thank
you
for
being
here
good
evening.
Thank
you.
I
am
sandy
Williams
and
I
am
proud
to
be
the
domestic
violence
services
director
at
YWCA
I
grew
up
in
Evanston
and
attendant
et
HS
and
I'm
now
honored
to
serve
the
community
that
raised
me
in
my
job.
I
lead
our
domestic
resident,
just
domestic
violence,
residential
community
services
and
I'm
happy
to
stand
here
with
some
of
our
team
members.
Our
existing
emergency
shelter
does
not
meet
the
diversity
of
needs
of
women
and
children
who
come
to
our
program.
I
I
The
shelter
does
not
have
sufficient
privacy
to
do
counseling.
There
is
no
dedicated
space
for
children
and
women.
It
is
not
optimal,
for
providing
for
promoting
dignity
and
healing.
Rest
assured
that
we
have
done
amazing
work
in
keeping
women
and
children
safe
for
over
30
years,
and
but
we
can
do
better.
Our
new
Family
Support
Center
is
innovative,
it's
healing
its
trauma-informed
and
it
offers
our
residents
the
respect
and
dignity
that
they
deserve.
I
It
will
double
the
capacity
that
we
have
allowing
us
to
serve
more
survivors
and
their
children,
both
in
our
shelter
and
in
our
community
counseling
program.
We
will
welcome
residents
with
respect
privacy,
quiet
and
space
to
heal
and
grow.
For
the
first
time,
our
children
and
youth
will
have
a
safe
private
space
and
our
family
and
our
staff
will
have
adequate
room
to
offer.
Counseling
and
confidentiality.
I
A
A
B
And
Ravel
excuse
me:
I
just
have
a
couple
of
questions
because
I'm,
certainly
very
supportive
of
this
proposed
expansion
I
think
it's
going
to
be
a
really
great
benefit
to
the
community
and
there's
clearly
a
need,
as
we've
just
been
hearing
from
our
speakers.
I
was
just
interested
in
what
how
the
stormwater
management
is
going
to
be
handled,
given
that
it's
going
to
greatly
exceed
the
impervious
surface
coverage
requirement.
J
Hi
I'm
Jack
Schroeder
with
linen
bone,
Baker,
architects
and
I'm
the
project
architect
for
the
for
the
whole
project,
I'm,
not
the
civil
engineer,
but
we
are
retaining
and
servicing
all
the
stormwater
on
site
it'll
be
underneath
the
northern
parking
lot
but
it'll
all
be.
It
won't
tax
the
system
any
more
great.
That's.
B
J
Worked
really
closely
with
staff
and
presented
multiple
options
and
and
landed
in
a
really
nice
place
that
has
more
varied
material,
brick
masonry
it
breaks
down
the
scale
of
the
building.
It
was
kind
of
one
large
piece
and
we've
broken
that
into
kind
of
four
sections
varied.
The
height
really
listened
to
kind
of
all
the
things
that
we
heard
there
was
a
pitch
to
the
entry
roof
that
would
kind
of
flattened
and
made
a
little
bit
more
subdued.
J
H
Could
you
respond
to
that?
Also
sure
when,
when
this
is,
is
the
architect
noted
when
it
came
to
dapper
it
was
singular
material
and,
and
we
felt
that
it
would
particularly
give
him
the
neighborhood
it's
residential,
yet
also
there's
some
institutional
uses
in
the
vicinity
as
you
head
south
on
Ridge
that
it
would
make
sense
to
try
to
provide
a
better
transition.
And,
coincidentally,
this
entire
building
at
this
building
on,
like
every
side,
seems
to
be
surrounded
by
an
architect.
So
we
had
a
small
neighborhood
I
mean
I'm,
like
it
really
was.
H
We
had
a
neighborhood
small
neighborhood
meeting
after
dapper
and
about
four
people
showed
up
and
it
was.
It
was
sort
of
like
well
actually
I'm
an
architect
too,
and
and
and
as
they
went
through,
they
had
some
very
nice
comments
about
they
liked
the
use
they
had
some
good
constructive
feedback.
That
I
think
has
been
nicely
incorporated
into
this
new
design.
Thank.
K
Thank
you
very
much,
madam
chair
and
I'm
in
support
of
this
entirely
and
the
wonderful
work
that
the
Y
does
and
has
done,
and
wonderful,
Karen
singer
who
I,
love
and
and
but
I
I
want
to
just
raise
an
issue
that
I'm
generally
concerned
about
in
evanston.
This
is
one
of
the
most
historic
intersections
in
the
entire
town.
K
The
house
that
used
to
be
on
the
corner
is
the
location
of
where
the
only
time
Abraham
like
you,
never
spent
the
night
in
Evanston
he
spent
in
that
house
and
the
house
next
door
also
is
yes
historic,
too,
and
I
just
I
want
to
try
to
find
a
way
to
recognize
the
history
of
that
site
within
the
new
building
and
I.
Think
it's
important
so
I'm,
just
gonna
read
you
a
tiny
a
little
bit
here.
K
Returning
to
everyday
life,
we
find
an
important
visitor
came
to
Evanston
and
stayed
overnight
one
who,
though,
already
well-known,
was
soon
to
become
a
national
figure.
Abraham
Lincoln
mr.
Lincoln
was
in
Chicago
attending
a
law
trial
when
Julius
white,
an
old
friend,
invited
him
to
be
his
guest
and
how
every
herd
was
given
the
honor
of
a
company,
mr.
Lincoln
I'm
out
on
the
train,
and
he
describes
him
by
quoting
another
man's
words,
not
that
he
knew
at
all
and
that
I
knew
little
or
nothing.

four
o

for
approval
of
a
special

for
a
planned

in
the

M
A
P
Hi,
thank
you.
I
am
a
resident
of
Evanston
and
in
fact,
I
live
about
two
blocks
from
the
proposed
location
for
the
theater
and
I
am
speaking
as
a
very
strong
proponent
of
it.
To
me,
it
is
a
win-win
situation
for
Evanson
in
theater
to
bring
more
cultural
arts
to
to
our
city.
It
will
improve
the
downtown
area.
If
you
look
on
that
block
of
Church
Street,
it
has
a
lot
of
vacant
buildings
and
I
think
it
will
bring
a
lot
of
activity
to
that
area.
P
It's
an
attractive,
low-rise
building,
which
I
think
we
need
more
of,
and
it
will
be
a
boon
to
the
commercial
endeavors
on
that
Street
and
the
roads
and
the
restaurants
and
retail
all
throughout
downtown
Davidson,
which
we
need
as
well,
and
you
know
with
the
the
metro
and
the
L
right
there
I'm
not
as
concerned
about
the
parking
as
I
know.
A
lot
of
you
might
be,
but
I
think
we're
going
to
get
a
lot
of
people
just
taking
public
transportation
there.
P
D
Q
Thank
you,
I
do
think
it's
important
to
hear
from
people
who
live
in
the
immediate
neighborhood
I
live
about
a
block
and
a
half
from
where
the
theater
will
be
and
I
feel
as
if
everyone
the
lottery.
This
is
the
neatest
thing
that
could
happen
to
our
neighborhood.
As
Linda
said
a
few
minutes
ago.
It's
a
win,
win,
win,
win,
win,
I,
don't
know
who
doesn't
win
here
so
I've
been
a
resident
of
Evanston
for
five
years
and
I
think
we're
very
fortunate
to
live
in
a
very
magical
place.
Q
A
R
Meeting
to
address
this,
so
it's
just
a
repeat
of
what
I
I
said
at
the
wrong
me.
My
dog
comes
to
correct
me
anyway.
He's
he's
well
trained,
so
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
with
the
auxiliary
units
dwelling
units,
it's
a
blessing
that
we
just
need
to
make
ought
to
actually
tweak
a
tiny
bit,
and
that
has
to
do
with
regard
to
parking
and
then
also
allowing
when
these
are
developed
that
there's
some
private
access.
R
So
that's
one
way
to
get
around
parking,
because
if
there's
private
access,
then
the
access
can
be
can
also
act
as
parking
I.
Think
buildings
should
be
taller
rather
than
wider,
the
because
the
footprint
is
going
to
matter
with
regard
to
climate
resiliency
and
then
also
with
regard
to
ad
use.
Things
should
fully
comply
with
some
sort
of
list
of
priorities
for
the
city.
Now
that
we're
looking
at
our
budget
and
our
goals
and
that
the
goal
should
include
climate
resiliency
and
applied
to
these
units
as
well.
They
you
Thank.
N
Hello,
hi
everybody,
so
my
name
is
Amy.
Morton
I
live
here
in
Evanston
and
I.
Also
am
a
business
owner
here
in
Evanston.
I
am
in
the
restaurant
business
and
have
a
couple
restaurants
quite
close
to
where
Northlight
is
hopefully
going
to
be
so.
I
am
a
massive
proponent
of
Northlight
I.
Think
when
I,
when
I
think
of
what's
important
to
Evanston,
I,
think
of
community
I,
think
of
culture
and
I.
N
Think
of
creativity
and
I
think
that
Northlight
I
feel
that
I
know
that
Lord
North
light
is
gonna
bring
all
of
these
things
to
us.
We
are
a
world-class
city
and
we've
got
it
all.
The
one
thing
we're
missing
is
a
Performing
Arts,
Center
and
North
Lake
started
here
so
North
Lake
needs
to
come
back.
I
also
feel
that
we
need
North,
Lake
I
feel
that
we
need
north
light
and
I.
Don't
just
want
north
light.
N
I
feel
that
we
need
north
light
for
our
families
and
it's
an
incredible
opportunity
to
open
the
doors
to
our
children.
They're
gonna
do
a
lot
more
than
just
paid
performances.
It's
really
gonna
be
a
great
opportunity
for
the
schools,
whether
you
know
elementary
or
senior
programs
to
really
explore
the
arts.
And
finally,
we've
had
a
massive
restaurant
revolution
here
in
town
and
the
city
makes
a
lot
of
money
on
the
liquor
tax
I
believe
it's
the
second
highest
in
the
state
and
possibly
in
the
country,
and
we
cannot
fill
our
restaurants.
N
There
are
so
many
restaurants
with
empty
seats.
We
all
have
heard
of
in
seen.
Restaurants
closing-
and
this
will
be
the
absolute
very
best
thing
for
our
restaurants,
as
well
as
our
downtown
retail,
so
I
hope
it
works
out.
It's
an
incredible,
theater
and
Evanston
deserves
it
and
I'm
not
worried
about
the
parking
either.
Thank.
S
I'm
Jan
Haslett
I
am
married
to
Evan
stone.
Ian
I
am
an
on
the
advisory
board
for
Northlight
and
I
am
with
that
properties
and
I'm.
Here
to
tell
you
why
people
want
to
move
to
Evanston.
Not
only
is
it
a
mosaic
of
all
things
that
we
love,
it
has
a
strong
arts
component.
It
has
world-class
schools,
we
have
a
world-class
university,
we
have
fabulous
architecture,
we
have
the
lake,
we
have
wonderful,
wonderful
restaurants,
as
amy
said,
and
we
need
a
world-class
theater.
We
need
to
have
North
Lake
come
back.
S
S
It
will
also
we
also
partner
with
family
focus
y
ou.
U
YJ
c
YW
the
YW,
Evanston
scholars
and
many
more,
and
it's
just
going
to
be
so
much
more
exciting
for
these
kids
to
be
able
to
participate
in
this.
When
people
move
to
Evanston,
they
ask
why
everybody's
so
excited
about
it.
Why
we
want
to
be
here,
a
lot
of
them
are
moving
up
from
the
city.
They
don't
really
want
to
move
to
a
community
where
it
feels
more.
S
Like
a
bedroom
community,
you
want
to
move
to
feel
like
there
they're
bringing
part
of
the
city
to
them.
They
want
the
energy.
They
want
the
activities
they
want
to
be
able
to
walk
to
things
they
can.
They
can
do
that
with
restaurants.
They
can
do
that
with
the
lake
Northwestern,
but
what
we're
missing
is
a
theater
component
and
I
think
it
would
make
all
the
difference
in
the
world
for
Evanston.
If
we
have
that
theater
component
that
can
serve
the
community
all
ages
and
all
kinds
of
fault.
Thank.
T
Know,
okay
good
evening,
thanks
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
for
just
a
moment
on
behalf
of
nor
fly
theatre,
I'm,
Neil,
Gamboa
resident
of
Edison.
This
just
to
me
looks
like
one
of
the
most
well
thought-out
proposals.
That's
been
in
front
of
this
committee
in
a
pretty
long
time,
I
think
for
something
this
size.
You
know
this
says
something
about
Evanston.
When
you
talk
about
stuff,
that's
going
to
happen
with
restaurants
and
all
this
stuff.
What
does
it
look
like
30
years
from
now
when
things
have
changed,
but
you
have
an
anchor
here.
T
Has
Northlight
theater
they've
been
around
for
forty
five
years,
probably
going
to
be
in
the
ground
another
45
years
and
I
think
this
would
be
a
tremendous
asset
to
this
city
and
an
anchor
where
we
can
really
be
proud
and
kind
of
point
our
finger
in
Chicago
and
say
guess
what
we're
doing
up
here
so
I'm
in
full
support
and
I.
Think
it's
a
no-brainer
thank.
U
U
A
U
I
am
an
architect
in
Evanston
I've
been
an
architect
here
for
42
years
and
I'm
here
to
speak
strongly
in
favor
as
well
of
the
great
north
light
project.
Just
a
couple
of
comments
when
I
look
at
projects,
especially
projects
that
have
to
weave
a
fairly
complex
program
into
a
pretty
dense
urban
site,
it's
it's
important
for
us
to
have
as
a
goal
that
this
new
hole
will
be
greater
than
the
sum
of
its
parts.
U
Typically,
a
large
concern
of
architects
is
the
visual
result
of
this
project
and
I
think
you've
seen
the
design
of
the
project.
I
think
it
is
a
very
wonderful
design
solution
that
will
give
great
life
to
that
part
of
the
city.
But
when
we're
doing
our
best
work,
I
think
that
we
are
considering
a
lot
more
than
the
visual
aspects.
U
I
think
this
new
hole
should
be
greater
than
than
the
sum
of
its
parts
socially,
culturally,
economically
and
environmentally
as
well,
and
there's
no
doubt
in
my
mind
that
this
project
really
hits
on
all
of
these
marks
very
successfully.
So
I
think
it's
going
to
be
a
great
addition
to
the
city
as
a
cultural
institution,
but
also
as
a
very
nice
piece
of
architecture.
U
One
of
my
favorite
architects,
Aldo
Van
Dyck
long
gone,
had
a
quote
lunch,
which
I
think
applies
here.
He
said
that
that
time
in
the
image
of
man
is
occasion
and
space
in
the
image
of
man
is
place
and
I
really
do
believe
that
this
pretty
ordinary
space
right
now
will
be
transformed
into
a
really
important,
a
very
important
place
for
many
great
human
occasions.
Thank
you.
Thank.
M
You
and
I
think
the
the
speaker's
pretty
well
covered
it,
but
I.
Of
course,
I
always
do
worry
about
parking,
but
I
am
reassured
because
this
space
has
been
operating
as
a
music
venue
for
quite
some
time
for
many
years.
So
I
do
think
that
the
it's
demonstrated
that
we
can't
handle
the
visitor
traffic
so
I'm
comfortable
with
that.
So
very
much
in
support
of
this
and
appreciate
this
support
that
we've
had
as
we've
traveled
down
this
path
is.
O
Well,
I
I
would
just
like
to
say
how
pleased
I
am
that
Northlight
didn't
give
up
and
actually
I
think
has
come
back
with
an
even
better
project
than
they
originally
had
and
and
how
excited
I
am
that
they
are
coming
to
this
space
and
really
energizing
it
and
in
living
it
and
becoming
another
economic,
the
end
economic
engine
that
it
was
and
now
will
return
to
be
here
in
Evanston.
So
congratulations
thank.
A
H
D
All
the
members
of
the
committee
Cheryl
Simmons,
we
are
talking
only
about
Coach
houses
at
the
moment
or
associated
with
parking,
because
that's
the
only
form
of
accessory
dwelling
unit
that
is
currently
in
our
code.
We
do
want
to
come
back
with
much
more
comprehensive
revisions
to
accessory
dwelling
units,
but
we
believe
that
we
should
wait
till
we
get
more
community
input
that
we're
working
on
getting
through
the
affordable
housing
plan
process
and
that
that's
a
more
appropriate
place.
D
K
So,
madam
chair,
I,
guess
what
I
would
and
thank
you
for
that?
Sir
I
appreciate
that
I
think
that's
fine
I
mean
we
already
have
them
and
I
don't
have
any
problem
with
them.
I
am
concerned
about
eliminating
or
waiving
the
parking
requirement,
so
I
guess
I
would
say,
at
least
in
the
neighborhoods,
in
the
first
ward,
where
our
streets
are
literally
all
packed
up
parked
up
packed
up.
A
B
I
think
I
think
the
conditions
under
which
we're
talking
about
waving
the
parking
requirement
are
certainly
worth
considering
the
idea
that
we
would
waive
the
parking
restriction
if
there
were
a
rental
restriction,
either
for
the
ad
or
for
the
main
house
and
eliminating
it
in
transit,
oriented
development
areas.
We
recently
dug
out
this
report
from
not
quite
sure
who
it
research
from
Oregon
has
suggested
that
ad,
u
tenants
tend
to
own
fewer
cars
than
other
households,
so
I
think.
O
What
everyone
I
would
agree
with
what
Aldrin
Ravel
just
said
about
the
parking
issue
I
like
the
suggestion
about
the
affordability
restriction
of
ten
ten
or
more
years
for
either
the
principal
residence
for
waiving
the
additional
parking
requirement.
I'd
like
them
to
study,
that's
more
I
think
allowing
increasing
the
the
area
in
which
we
permit
an
Adu
is
something
that
we
should
definitely
urge.
O
Definitely
look
into
and
and
move
towards
we're
seeing
other
cities
in
the
United
States
were
which
have
already
done
that
and
are
really
working
towards
providing
more
affordable
housing
that
way
so
I,
I'm
and
I
think
this
is
very
good.
I
think
I
would
I
strongly
support
moving
this
forward.
Yeah.
Thank
you.
K
The
other
is
around
the
university
just
west
of
the
University,
and
if
staff
would
just
go
down
on
Sherman
Avenue
and
take
a
look
at
how
heavily
that
street
is
perked
up,
for
example,
around
Noyes
Street
around
foster
around
Emerson
and
how
far
it
spills
over
into
the
neighborhood
that
every
time
you
add
a
welling
unit,
you
potentially
add
another
car
that
dwelling
unit
is
going
to
be
entitled
to
have
an
on
street
parking
permit
in
a
restricted
area.
So
somehow
or
another,
the
area
is
going
to
get
more
parked
up.
K
And
you
know
you
can
you
can
talk
about
whatever
study
you
want
to
from
wherever
you
want
to
and
what
your
hope
is
for
for
fewer
cars.
But
the
fact
is,
you
have
a
cut
on
the
street
and
there
are
a
lot
of
cars
in
the
last
week
when
the
Northwestern
University
started
the
north
end
of
the
first
Ward
that
was
a
sleepy
little
town
is
now
entirely
perked
up,
and
that
is
with
two
new
parking
garages
on
campus,
which
we're
very
thankful
for,
and
additional
parking
up
on,
Central
Street,
so
I
want
you
all.
K
If
you're
not
familiar
with
the
area
is
pleased
to
take
the
time.
I
will
also
be
happy
to
share
with
you
the
six-month
study
that
Rikki
Voss
did
for
the
area
east
of
downtown,
because
it's
it's
very
it's
very
serious
and
in
my
ward
and
that's
why
I'm
asking
for
one
parking
place
and
if
the
Adu
doesn't
want
it,
the
homeowner
can
rent
it
out.
D
K
A
M
Think
we
should
give
them
the
latitude
to
you
know,
discuss
options
so
I
don't
want
to
limit
them
to
just
you
know
the
one
thing
so
I
think
they
should
have
a
conversation
and
get
back
to
us
with
what
anything
makes
sense
and
they
might
agree
with
that,
and
they
might
say
something
different,
but
you
know
we'll
have
the
benefit
of
their
discussion
and
their
materials
and
we'll
know
what
their
I
just
don't
want
to
send
it
to
him
with
a
mandate.
I.
K
K
A
So,
if
you
could
look
at
it,
I
don't
know
if
it's
a
possibility
for
it
to
be
by
I,
don't
know
how
would
that
be
second
census
tract
or
what?
How
could
you
Tod
area
or
not,
although
if
we
can
differentiate
where
the
allowance
is
given
for
the
parking
and
where
it
is
not,
but
I
definitely
don't
want
to
not
explore
this
as
an
option,
because
it's
a
great
way
to
expand
our
affordable
housing
across
the
city
of
Evanston,
so
I
would
win.
Yes,.
O
I
think
that
we're
probably
doing
some
of
the
Planning
Commission's
work,
but
not
I,
think
some
Tod
areas.
For
instance,
there
are
Tod
areas
in
other
parts
of
the
city
in
the
Third
Ward,
where
this
might
work,
but
I
do
appreciate
what
happens
when
in
the
wards
where
we
have
so
many
northwestern
students
and
it
is
impossible
to
park
in
those
areas.
So
if
they
could
perhaps
the
plan
Commission
should
study
those
and
figure
out.
O
What's
a
what's
an
appropriate
standard
that
to
to
have
the
waiver
or
the
exemption
I
did
based
on
parking
saturation
levels
for
most
of
the
year,
because
we
can
determine
that
and
then
you
know
and
then
have
it
perhaps
be
revisited
every
five
years
to
determine
whether
those
parking
saturation
levels
still
exist
at
that
point.
So
there's
some
ability
to
revisit
it
and
determine
whether
we
still
need
to
have
that
that
exemption
may
be
in
a
ten
year
mark
something
like
that.
I'm
looking
away
down
the
road
but
yeah.
A
And
and
the
parking
challenges
aren't
limited
to
these
areas,
even
in
the
neighborhoods
we
have,
especially
on
street
sweeping
days,
you
know
you're
walking,
sometimes
a
couple
of
blocks,
especially
if
you're
getting
home
late
at
night.
So
certainly
there
may
be
a
study
that
shows
that
you
know
an
accessory
dwelling
resident
may
have
may
not
have
a
car,
but
many
of
them
will
so
don't
want
to
exclude
it
too
that
research
is
there
any
further
referral
autumn.
Fifth,
did
you
have
a
final
comment?
Okay,
if
you
clear
on
that,
we.
D
Will
look
very
carefully
at
parking
in
all
neighborhoods
and
both
look
at
the
parking
needs
of
different
areas
and
also
consider
what
is
an
appropriate
restriction
if
parking
were
to
be
waived
for
any
specific
unit
and
I
will
probably
consult
with
individual
aldermen
to
make
sure
that
I
have
the
areas
right.
Thank.
