Mr. Weinstein replied that staff could definitely do that. He added that, just as a cautionary note to the Commission, the list of Council Priorities is quite voluminous, so it could be pretty challenging to get something like this on the Council Priorities list. He noted, however, that that should not stop the Commission from thinking critically about these issues that are related to the community. Chair Allen stated that it is looming, so now is the time for the Commission to think about it and be prepared. She asked Mr. Weinstein to include in the report how much money would be needed to build a parking structure so the Commission has an end point in mind. Mr. Weinstein said yes Commissioner O'Connor inquired, theoretically, if the Commission came up with a proposal to modify what is existing today and send it to Council and the Council approves it, if this is a relatively easy or quick fix for staff to modify what is there or if this is really a complicated thing to put together. He stated that it sounds like it should be fairly straightforward and easy. Ms. Harryman replied that it would depend on how easy or difficult the recommended changes would be to draft. She stated that, for example, one thing discussed and easy to draft would be whether or not terraces and outdoor patios should be included or maybe have a cap, so it requires only counting or getting only up to "x" amount for free and then after that, it counts towards the square footage at one space per 300 square feet. She added that she suspects the PDA will have a great interest in this, and the Council, before adopting even what seems like a simple change like that, may want to have community meetings and other things to discuss that. She noted that this would be an ordinance change which would take two reading and 30 days thereafter to become effective. She then indicated that there are some recommendations that would probably be more controversial and take a little bit more thought and flushing out. Commissioner Nagler commented that it starts with the conversation of this Commission. Ms. Harryman said yes. 8. MATTERS FOR COMMISSION'S REVIEW /ACTION /INFORMATION a.
