Description
6.16.2023 Economic Development Commission
A
Welcome
everyone
to
friday
morning
june
16th
economic
development
commission
thank.
B
The
first
friday
and
a
couple
of
folks
have
some
scheduling,
conflicts
and
haven't
been.
B
Able
to
join,
but
I
appreciate
everyone
being
able
to
get
here
today,
our
primary
business.
B
For
today
is
going
to
be
outdoor
dining,
but
before
we
get
that
far,
I
would
like
to.
B
Everybody
so
for
our
standing
agenda
items
first
up,
we've
got
our
land
use
liaison
on.
B
Bob,
I
know
yep,
I
think
that's
primarily
you
the
last
meeting.
C
I'll
boil
down
the
two
and
a
half
hours
to
just
a
few
seconds
here.
It
was
what
we
did
was.
C
Into
for
housing,
development
and
those
were
the
city
hall
lot,
the
lot
out
at.
C
C
And
see
what
the
viability
of
each
of
those
lots
is
and
contrary
to
what
you
might
have
read.
D
Think
that
we're
making
plans
to
move
ahead.
I
don't,
I
don't
know
all
the
details,
but.
D
I
don't
know,
do
you
have
more
than
that?
The
the
next
step
in
the
process
of
conversations.
E
E
C
There
was
some
discussion
and
question
about
whether
pha
should
be
the
partner
or
whether
we
should
look
for
other
developers.
C
I
mean,
in
my
opinion,
pha
kind
of
keeps
the
money
in
the
community.
So
if
you
know
if.
C
B
Great
good
update,
I
know,
we've
got
ben
on
next
and
you've
got
some
time
conflict
this
morning.
F
Busy
we
slow
down
because
the
the
work
is
not
needed
to
fill
our
restaurants
and
retail
shops.
F
So
it's
kind
of
a
quiet
time
of
year.
For
us
we
we
are
spending
a
lot
of
time
doing.
F
Some
significant
planning
putting
together
a
three-year
strategic
plan.
We
just
had
our
retreat.
F
On
that
looks,
like
you
know,
continue
to
do
some
of
the
work
that
we've
been
doing
these
past.
F
F
F
Event
is
sold
out
with
a
waiting
list
at
900
people,
so
it's
going
to
be
quite
the
to
do
quite.
F
F
G
G
G
G
G
G
G
G
G
D
Time
today
to
deal
with
that,
I
know
we
just
received
that
this
morning
it's.
D
D
Between
staff
and
the
commission
is
that,
like
this
is
a
commission
of
a
city
council,
so
there.
D
Changed
within
the
the
verbiage
of
the
document
to
address
that
a
couple
other
things:
let's
see.
D
D
D
B
B
Present
to
not
hand
for
any
comments,
questions
that
might
be
useful
to
have
someone
here.
D
B
Trying
to
formalize
the
what
had
been
operated
for
the
last
few
years
on
on
the
policy
basis.
B
We
formed
a
smaller
working
group
to
to
digest
all
of
the
information
that
had
been
provided
to.
B
And
everett,
and
I'm
and
ben
also
as
well,
and
I'm
not
sure
if
ben
is
still
with
us,
they
were.
I.
B
B
B
Readings
and
try
to
bring
a
plan
back
to
this
full
commission
for
a
more
meaningful,
complete.
B
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
Planters
can
go
on
top
of
them,
yeah
go
back
to
that
and
then
and
there's
safety
standards
on.
I
I
I
I
B
So
I
think
one
of
the
things
we
heard
fairly
clearly
was
that.
B
And
this
is
in
the
plannings
report
back
to
the
council.
Safety
is
a
main
issue,
so
we
didn't.
B
B
B
Welcome
any
comments
or
questions
folks
have
on
that
particular
topic.
Sarah
do
we
know
any.
H
B
Profit
counts,
but
I
think
to
me
that
kind
of
defines
its
immaterial
impact
to
a
neighborhood.
G
H
H
B
So
butter
approval.
I
think
that
this
was
pretty
clearly
a
response
on
our
end.
B
B
As
fair
as
possible,
I
think
there's
there's
some
businesses
that
may
be
open
and
supportive
to.
B
B
B
H
B
Great
great
question:
I
I
had
the
same
thought
and
I
believe
with
the
about
our
approval,
this.
B
B
B
A
sidewalk
obstruction
permit
sidewalk
yep
and
yes,
I
I
I
would
I'm
going
to
say
I'm
going.
E
E
G
D
B
So
I
think
we
we
viewed
the
task
as
an
outdoor
dining
specific
task,
but
were
the
question
did.
B
Further
feedback
from
jacob
do
all
these
approvals
also
follow
the
same
rules
for.
J
B
E
Kind
of
sharing,
yeah
geez
louise
and
summer
sessions,
elephantine
and
cava.
Those
are
the
two.
E
I
don't
like
this
season
so
length
of
season.
I
think,
based
on
what
what
has
been
seen.
B
Material
change
to
what
currently
exists,
I
think
that's
important
given
winters
here.
B
But
I
think
there
there
was
a
concept
asked
about
for
kind
of
year
round.
B
Be
consideration,
I
think
we
kind
of
view
this
from
a
holistic
perspective
on
the
positive.
B
B
Space,
I
think
it's
something
that
that
we
kind
of
grapple
with
and
and
the
way
we're
approaching.
B
B
B
I
think
it
needs
to
be
fluid.
You
know
we
live
in
an
inflationary
time
and
I
think
our
terms
of.
B
Every
year
so,
and
then
with
that
thinking
that
uniform
pricing
would
be
the
most
equitable
way.
B
To
approach
it
for
any
on-street
parking,
space,
usage,
travel,
lane,
usage
and
or
sidewalk
usage,
so.
B
B
Overall,
throughout
the
city
to
everybody
and
certainly
recognize
that
the
the.
B
So
certainly
has
been
a
time
where
we've
allowed
groups
to
benefit
from
the.
B
K
That
3517
an
all-in
number
for
lost
revenue
for
those
parking
spaces.
That's
an
average
among.
E
Zones
got
it.
Thank
you
because
it
recognizes
there's
turnip
well
yep
understood
that
ben's
got.
G
K
You
know
alternate
parking
for
what
it's
worth
there
are
there
are.
There
were
typically.
L
Doesn't
reimburse
the
city
for
staff
time
right
to
do
inspections,
review
registrations
and
or.
D
Just
it
draws
people
in
it
was
also
the
first
full
year
of
stay.
B
M
M
They're
removed
so
a
restaurant
or
retail
or
whoever's
using
is
to
can't
remove
the.
M
Can't
be
distilled
down
into
fee
considerations
and
and
what's
going
what's
going
on.
B
I
I
L
L
Outdoor
dining,
I
should
say
what
what
their
fee
structure
was
is
anna
is
anna
howard.
O
I
K
Square
foot
for
newburyport
portland
is
eighty
four
dollar
plus
two
dollars
a
square
foot.
K
Than
ten
dollars
per
square
foot
boston
you're
first
born.
Oh
sorry,
I
misread
that.
K
Some
of
the
numbers,
but
you
know
kind
of
in
line
with
say
newburyport.
J
J
Don't
have
parking,
I
fully
understand
that
and
I
think
the
most
frustrating
comes
from
the
time.
J
J
J
B
E
H
M
M
An
exhibit
or
outside
of
bone,
and
so
that
it
can
be
revised.
I
had
to
I'm
I'd
really
like
to.
M
M
M
M
M
M
M
With
an
htc
intact,
the
way
we
have
it
today,
it
is
so
far
out
from
what
I
was
used
to
when.
M
I
H
H
H
H
H
For
outdoor
space,
I
feel
like
they
should
be
equitably
applied.
My
my,
I
think
our
thought.
H
B
Furniture,
I
think,
to
end
point
and
comments
made
so
far,
really
best
practices
and.
B
Location
in
the
historic
district
commission
in
our
historic
city,
so
I
think
that's
just.
B
Intended
to
provide
some
framework
and
definition
around
that
any
questions
or
comments.
B
K
K
K
K
K
I
M
I
Respects
a
lot
is,
is
nacto
national
association
of
city
traffic
officials
like
that
that
might.
I
I
A
lot
of
the
long
edge
things
they
really
will
tell
you
traffic
flow.
When
do
you
need
a
jersey.
I
B
Go
to
the
next
while
we're
on
this.
I
just
want
to
mention
that
if
you're.
I
I
I
B
B
Platforms
and
parklets
would
be
limited
to
an
eight
foot
width
from
the
curb.
So
I
think
where.
B
Parking
right
now,
it's
limited
to
parallel
parking,
so
it
would
limit
their
usage
from
the.
B
Comments
questions,
I
would
say
one
of
the
more
elegant
of
outdoor
dining
situations
or
yeah.
M
M
M
Radius
platform,
so
that
that
could
inform
the
master
planning
for
where
the
permanent,
much
like.
M
M
Lanes
on
metal
street
changed
several
times
and
there
wasn't.
There
was
the
ability
to
do
that.
M
Would
probably
involve
video
cameras
and
and
how
to
study
where
people
naturally
congregate.
M
M
I
I
I
I
E
Rudy's,
you
can
all
remember
back
when
there
should
be
turf
in
a
ball
chairs
and
tables,
and
I.
H
G
B
So
that
was
a
lot
a
lot
covered.
I
appreciate
all
the
thoughts
and.
B
M
The
outdoor
dining
and
the
decks
the
new,
the
the
recommendation
on
the
at
grade
decks
is.
M
Delivery,
trash
mail,
delivery,
emergency
vehicles
and
the
patterns,
and
that's
something
that
you.
M
Seen
it
talked
about
a
lot,
you
know
fedex
ups.
How
do
you
get
an
ambulance
into
market
square.
I
I
E
Square
okay:
to
come
and
go
she's
had
to
have
the
plastic,
the
really
attractive
plastic,
water.
B
Great,
thank
you
andy
good
point
chairman.
The
other
point
we
made
was
the
purpose
for
reducing
the.
L
Because
when
there's
delivery,
trucks
and
and
parking
in
market
square,
that
space
really
gets.
L
B
B
E
O
Parts
of
streets
for
the
for
the
the
store
that's
being
renovated
there
at
the
corner.
O
O
Is
is
absolutely
totally
blocked,
as
you
are
coming
into
that
into
that
intersection.
O
O
O
O
O
Their
meeting
in
june
nothing's
been
done
so
obviously
my
comments
were
probably
disregarded.
O
Intersection
with
those
trees
at
jumping
jays
on
purpose,
you
know,
along
with
the
fact
that
he.
O
O
O
Of
exhaust
fumes
on
congress
street,
but
you've
got
to
look
at
the
safety
in
that
in
that,
inter.
O
O
O
O
O
O
N
Thank
you
page
trace27,
hancock
street
you've
spoken
a
lot
this
morning
about
uniformity
and.
N
N
N
N
N
N
N
Thing
now
I
happen
to
agree
with
the
low
guard
umbrellas
or
something
that
looks
like
a
tiki.
N
N
N
N
N
P
Good
morning
resident
peter
harris,
I
live
at
249
islington
street
lived
in
portsmouth
for.
P
A
little
over
30
years,
I'd
like
to
just
go
back
to
what
liza
hewitt
had
said
about.
P
P
P
P
Downtown
versus
state
and
pleasant
street,
where
you're
coming
into
downtown
you
can't
you
can't.
P
P
Because
you
couldn't
make
it
or
whatnot,
but
she
and
has
voted
on
outside
dining
in
the.
P
City
council,
several
times
now,
when
they've
had
meetings,
I
like
it
noted
that
she
is
a
direct.
P
Single
it
out
to
joanna
to
anyone
on
the
city
council
that
owns
a
restaurant
should
be
involved.
P
There
is
a
lot
of
impact
to
that
and
that
I've
tried
to
find
out
what
those.
P
P
I
think
is
good,
I'm
glad
it's
a
healthy
discussion
to
hear
this
happening
as
a
resident
when
you.
P
P
Anyways
I
and
then
lastly,
I
know
on
the
jersey
or
the
designs
and
stuff
the
height.
P
Q
The
first
thing
I'd
like
to
address
here
and
you
ask
the
public
to
come
and
comment.
I
would.
Q
Especially
in
going
over
an
ordinance
and
the
presentation
that
anne
had
put
forward
today,.
Q
Q
Committee,
this
this
is
paid
for
by
the
citizens
of
portsmouth,
and
I
would
like
to
see
actually.
Q
Q
Q
Parking
revenue:
it
is
a
lot
of
costs
that
are
taken
up
by
the
staff.
The
other
thing
I
would
like.
Q
To
follow
up
on
that
is
on
on
the
enforcement
ann
had
mentioned
still
at
the
end
of.
Q
Q
Q
Q
I
don't
think
that
this
committee
wants
to
handle
the
hot
potato
of
fees.
I
thought
it
was
a.
Q
Great
thing
to
push
it
back
to
the
feed
committee
and
and
deal
with
this,
the
support
that
you.
Q
Q
Q
A
reason
and
it's
the
cost
of
the
city
and
the
cost
of
the
residents,
so
that
I
would
ask
you.
Q
Q
Q
To
to
put
to
put
into
to
force,
I
agree
with
with
the
discussion
on
not
going
into
design.
Q
Q
Committee
basically
represents
the
restaurants,
and
I
would
I
go
back
to
the
blue
ribbon
committee.
Q
Like
this
to
actually
bring
forward
and
represent
everybody,
thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much.
R
At
clay's
women's
clothing
for
13
years,
the
outdoor
dining,
we
totally
understood
in
covid.
R
R
R
R
And
I
couldn't
find
a
thing,
so
I
just
left
because
we
have
a
coupon
that
we
promote
every.
R
R
R
R
R
R
R
Park
and
it-
and
I
think
that
that's
a
city-
you
should
definitely
do
a
comparison
to
much.
R
R
R
R
Of
in
a
bottle
that
it
would
be
up
to
the
person
who
you
know,
let's
say
clays
if
someone
was.
R
R
B
Complicated
issue,
and
just
to
clarify
economic
development
commission
is
certainly
for
for
all.
B
Business
within
the
city,
so
we
value
your
input
and
feedback.
Today
we
do
have
one
other
item.
B
Date,
and
only
to
briefly
comment
since
we're
past
time
that
we
did
receive
some
commentary
from.
B
A
resident
since
our
past
meeting
to
further
explore
bringing
cruise
ships
back
to
the
city.
B
B
B
B
H
H
To
meet
ahead
of
that
submission
deadline
anyway,
right,
if
we're
going
to
have
commentary.
B
Came
through
for
the
ordinance,
and
we
would
need
to
distribute
that
and
in
advance
of
that.
L
B
Okay,
so
I
think
we'll.
B
N
I
talked
a
lot
about
equity,
page
trace,
27
hancock
street.
I
talked
a
lot
about
equity
earlier.
Q
You
sound
street
I'll
just
add
to
that.
If
you're
talking
about
a
meeting
of
the
subcommittee.
