<b style="color: #454545; font-family: helvetica; font-size: 12px;">1. Barnum lot update</b><br />
<span style="color: #454545; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">Kevin and Larry met with both Neil Thompson - (Village Planner)</span><br />
<span style="color: #454545; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">and D & B Engineers - both parties walked the property at Barnum.</span><br />
<span style="color: #454545; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">We reviewed foot print and many ideas including ligting and "green" surface with Mill Creek in mind, as well as entry and exit points for the new lot which is expected to be metered albeit at possibly lower rates.</span><br />
<span style="color: #454545; font-family: "helvetica";"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><br /></span></span><i style="color: #454545; font-family: helvetica; font-size: 12px;">The goal is to put out to bid by April 2018</i><br />
<span style="color: #454545; font-family: "helvetica";"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><br /></span></span><span style="color: #454545; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">--</span><br />

Kevin discussed possible upgrade of selected challenging meters, with a new more reliable model(same manufacturer) that would include video information panels.</span><br />
<span style="color: #454545; font-family: "helvetica";"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><br /></span></span><span style="color: #454545; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">--</span><br />

We discussed the possibility of hearing from Michael Klein an experienced parking consultant - We decided he would be invited in person or on phone for our next meeting to hear what his proposal would entail.</span><br />
<span style="color: #454545; font-family: "helvetica";"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><br /></span></span><span style="color: #454545; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">--</span><br />

A discussion on metering the street revealed that DOT would have to be involved in such approval if it was to be considered at all.</span><br />
<span style="color: #454545; font-family: "helvetica";"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><br /></span></span><span style="color: #454545; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">--</span><br />

Kevin spoke about the new upgraded Merchant validation program with Mobile NOW(Our APP provider) - Kevin suggestedinviting merchants to a luncheon atthe Village Ceter in February before the start of the 2018 parking season - At that luncheon the program could be outlined, explained and demonstrated. The luncheon would also serve as good will to merchants from the parking department.</span><br />
<span style="color: #454545; font-family: "helvetica";"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><br /></span></span><span style="color: #454545; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">--</span><br />

Texaco lot update(uptown) - going forward - construction to start as soon as asphalt suppliers are available </span><br />
<span style="color: #454545; font-family: "helvetica";"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><br /></span></span><span style="color: #454545; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">--</span><br />

The group took a walk for an infield visit of 5 meters - the group learned the positives, negatives and realities of a typical vistor to Port Jeff and their expereince with our meters.</span><br />
<span style="color: #454545; font-family: "helvetica";"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><br /></span></span><span style="color: #454545; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">Topics included sign placement, number of signs, heights meters , lack of lighting, unclear instructions, reliability of transaction on certain meters, parking lot conditions, markings and more.</span><br />
<span style="color: #454545; font-family: "helvetica";"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><br /></span></span><span style="color: #454545; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">--</span><br />
