encountered at the Town Center.
Tape 2/Side B
Further discussion ensued on parking challenges and a possible Parking Garage.
Commissioner Miller spoke on the merits of "CityPlace" in South Florida and suggested
we consider something like "CityPlace" - "Because the alternative is that we build a
parking garage because we absolutely have to, but we haven't really thought it through.
We need one and I think we need to seriously start looking at where it is going to be; and
we need to have some very firm plans presented by the City Manager to us because I do
believe the City is going to have to fund this garage probably with Bonds or some kind of
debt instrument; so we need - to think about it now, not next year or the year after. He
needs to bring this back to us."
Mayor Bush stated, "Commissioner Miller has made a suggestion that the Commission
direct the Manager to bring back information on a Parking Garage..." Commissioner
Miller added, "...Where it would be located - a solution." Mayor Bush then said, "We
need to have consensus on this to direct the Manager to do that." Commissioner Gilmore
noted, "There is a consensus." Commissioner McGinnis stated, "Yes, there is." Deputy

COMES OUT TWO FEET (2'). THIS WOULD JUST BE A SMALL -

NINE INCHES (9")." MR. MAXIAN STATED, "THAT'S CORRECT, YES -
