<div class="WordSection1">
<p class="MsoNormal">Good evening, colleagues, staff, and Hotline readers, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I hope everyone who celebrated/is celebrating Ramadan, Passover, Vaisakhi, or Easter enjoyed/is enjoying their holiday.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Below are some questions I have regarding the outdoor dining and West End vehicle closure update (Item 6B). If possible, having even basic responses (“yes”/”no”/”maybe”/”don’t know”) or off the cuff estimates before our meeting would be
helpful for me in answering the questions for council (p.2).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Staff time for the pilot program is expected to be “significant”. Re: Table 4 (the decision matrix)<o:p></o:p></p>
<ol style="margin-top:0in" start="1" type="1">
<li class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="margin-left:0in;mso-add-space:auto;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo1">
Approximately how much staff time is needed for the different options (including time needed to pursue funding opportunities such as grants)?
<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left:0in;mso-add-space:auto;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo1">
How much of an impact would it make to staff time needed if an ordinance change relaxed some of the use review requirements?
<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="margin-left:0in;mso-add-space:auto;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo1">
What are some examples of work we will be deciding not to pursue under these various options? In other words, what would staff be working on if not this?<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
<p class="MsoNormal">Approximately how much time would be needed to create (p. 4) “a holistic, broad, and intentional vision for downtown Boulder that would include the consideration of a permanent ‘shared street’ condition on the West end or, possibly, other
streets in the downtown area.”<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">What concerns does our fire department have about the various options under consideration, if any?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Could the street closure and/or outdoor dining proposals go through the racial equity instrument in the coming months to see how emerging plans align with our racial equity goals?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Do we have any demographics for survey respondents? If so, were there differences in the pattern of responses based on income, race/ethnicity, age, ability, etc.?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Some of the written responses in the restaurant and “other business” categories were identical (Attachment B; e.g., p. 59-60).
<o:p></o:p></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="margin-left:0in;mso-add-space:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">
Were the same respondents responding in both categories? <o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left:0in;mso-add-space:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">
If so, were the same respondents counted more than once for the rating responses (e.g., those in Illustrations 1 and 2 in the memo)?
<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="margin-left:0in;mso-add-space:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">
How many of the responses to the survey are from unique respondents?<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal">Attachment C (p. 79) shows the characteristics of business respondents (restaurant, retail, tech, other). What proportion of all West Pearl businesses are restaurant, retail, other? Basically, how representative was the distribution of
respondents?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>
