and the Be'l levue Avenue areas. Also, eicouragement of city .iircreased
fines on the second citation received in any !iven day.
Under.discussion, the Commission felt that metered parking is a loc_aliz^ed area such as chapin would simply shift problbm to ia3acent-ireas.Ihe commission reiterated its previous position that metered parking inthe whole of the downtown area would faci litate enforcement and indiceabuse. The Commission felt that the best overall option ai iti. iir.-would be to institute a "sl iding five structure.,,
