Alderwoman Kelly

Yes, thank you. | know that there have been a number of calls and there has been a lot of good work on
this. | just had a couple of questions from a standpoint of how this will all work. | was actually downtown
looking at how many are out there. Are we going to allow them to expand on the sidewalk and then have
the road be where pedestrians walk? Is that how we are doing it?

President Wilshire

| am going to ask Tim Cummings to address that question. Tim are you there?
