The handout highlighted that: <br /> . (1) 9,504 street blocks would be affected <br /> (2) 19, 008 street signs would be required <br /> (3) $630, 985 _was projected as the total cost to implement such <br /> a program <br /> A considerable amount of discussion followed. Councilman Symkowiak <br /> states that although he believed that alternate parking in residential <br /> neighborhoods was desireable, that the costs involved were prohibitive. <br /> Sean Watt suggested that perhaps a ten (10) block area could be targeted <br /> for a 30 tq 60 day period as an experiment. He suggested perhaps in the <br /> Park Avenue area. <br /> Councilman Symkowiak suggested that if proper news media coverage was <br /> given to-the targeted area that the City would be able to try the restricted , <br /> parking from 7 : 00 a.m. to 5: 00 p.m. He further suggested that interested <br /> members .of the Committee should join him in meeting with the editor of the <br /> Tribune to discuss the possibility of a weekly box- announcing upcoming <br /> public works projects such as the restricted parking. The Committee agreed <br /> that this would be the best route to go in light of the prohibitive costs. <br /> Councilman Symkowiak made a motion to adjourn the meeting,seconded by <br /> Councilman Serge. The meeting was adjourned at 4:55 p.m. <br /> Respectfully Submitted, <br /> Joseph Serge, Chairman <br /> Attachment. <br /> PRIM SSSSS Is PUBLISHING CO. <br />
