He expressed his pleasure that the discussion has evolved <br />beyond the downtown. <br /> <br />Chris Wuthmann stated that he is a market rate developer and found the <br />presentation fascinating and on the mark. He complimented staff on the work and <br />stated that a particular challenge exists in that the city has both the redevelopment <br />area and areas where affordable housing would be desirable but the flexibility is <br />not as great. He suggested that if an ordinance is not adopted that consideration <br />of a study session around a proposed project be conducted. To the extent that <br />shared parking is implemented between daytime and nighttime uses, reduction in <br />the parking requirement and associated costs might be accomplished. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br />No Council action required at this time.
