Councilmember Brewster. Yeah, actually I don't. OK.

“Okay I guess I'm just is there a plan for like how to communicate that other than just saying it's from this time. Would there be anything, any additional information, I guess? Not from me. OK. All right. So would there seem to be a reference actually about organizers of events not being aware of paid parking in the rationale perhaps in the whereas clause? Could you maybe describe that a bit more?”
