* It might be time to liquidate the Parking Authority.
* It is time to force retention votes for all authority members, even those of the Parking Authority.
* To build new parking on Second Ave, on the other side of The Mon, and not to worry about parking in established neighborhoods, such as the South Side, is a shame. We need parking treatments in the established neighborhoods. The Parking Authority is too keen on putting in new parking near the stadiums, near the new, un-proven, suburban-type office parks, and NOT in the areas where there is a huge problem with parking. 
* South Side, in-fill parking, can be obtained by co-op efforts. The city could help to organize these home-owner-type associations, given citizens / owners the voting rights of a co-op. There are many unsold properties that could go co-op.
* The side-lot program should be expanded, over time, to people who are farther away from the side-lot. People on the same street, same block and in turn, same neighborhood, who own houses (primary residents) should be able to acquire a side-lot if it is city-owned.
