Mr, Sorensen asked if the ~0m~n~stration had made any recom-
mendat~on regard~ng the monthly rates to be charged or the number
of spaces to be made ava11able.
Mr, Scott stated that 1t was the Admin1stration's recommen-
dation that monthly parking be permitted on the ground floor level,
1n the park1ng bays adJacent to the street and adjacent to the alley,
S1nce these areas were 1nconvenient to maneuver 1n-and-out of for
short-term oarkers. He also recommended that monthly park1ng be
?erm1tted on the roof level. It was also recommended that persons
~~ork1ng with1n, or paying taxes with1n the yark1ng d1strict be
charged $5 ~er month for ground floor, or $4.00 oer month for roof
level park1ng. Those employed outs1de the Park1ng D1str1ct should
be reau1red to pay $g for ground level park1ng or $8 for roof level
parking,
Mr. Minter suggested that the mot1on be amended to leave
the number of spaces, the spec~fic areas to be used, and the monthly
rates to the discretion of the ~0ministration, subJect to a maXImum
rate of $9 ?er month.
Hr. S>)urg~n and I~Irs. Hoover agreed to accept th1S anendment.
The Cha1rman called for a vo~ce vote on the motion, as amended, and
the motion carr1ed with no dissenting votes.
