them instead of Ed Trippet.

Line Spacing — Mark to follow through with this and make sure it was on the summer
schedule. Up date? Mark did talk to Jim Hansz at the City and in order for them to stripe Main
Street, and the side streets not including the avenues, it would cost $4600. Discussion
followed. Possible discussion with Jim Patrick in the future.
Parking Study — Discussion regarding getting a parking study done. KPC would like to see it
done before the end of the summer. Bill volunteered to make some calls and look into this for
the board. Janet will call Jim Patrick to see if he will visit our board meeting next month to
discuss a few issues. KPC would like to be on the agenda/attend for City Council workshop in
September.

7. New Business:
CS Museum Volunteer — Request to let a part-time volunteer park in CS lot due to frailty
and the confusion of the laundry trucks coming and going in the back alley where the
volunteers park. Discussion followed. Rachel will call and explain that we really cannot do this
as it set precedence and the parking commission wants to make sure we are fair to all. A
solution for them would be to buy a permit in that lot as we have some available and share it
between volunteers.
