I’m sure there would be, | mean we’d have to think about. But for example there’s a little park you Know around
the oval where we closed off part of the oval with the unnecessary sort of lanes over there. That could be
duplicated on the other end of the Court House Oval. On the south end there’s a similar configuration down
there. You know, I’m sure we could find a use for them. Alderwoman Kelly do you have another follow up.

Ok | guess my other question is — so if we pass this in the Finance Committee, it goes to the Board of
Aldermen, is there | guess a public hearing on this or is it just not necessary. Or is this something just if they
want to have public comments. | am just curious because | already know that | have quite a few constituents
who would not be for this to be honest with you. | already know that so | am just trying to figure out if we go for
it, then is public comment is that correct?

Yes, most of my questions were asked so | was trying to decide if | had any additional ones. | wanted to ask
about timing. | think this is great, | know that we’ve heard really good feedback from downtown. But my
question is we are running up against fall. When does the lease run out on the current ones and is there a
reason why we need to approve it now when we probably won’t put them up until after winter.

Alderman Klee
Thank you Mr. Mayor, actually what Alderman O’Brien had asked was the question that | wanted to ask. Mr.
Griffin the question | have is this the same item that we had that was going to be, that we did get some
insurance money for but we have to put that in as a revenue and then we just file this? Is this how this is
working.
Mr. Griffin
