How much vertically mixed-use buildings is too much? <br /> 2. How do we plan for a mix of single-use buildings on a single-block(what happens if the last user in is <br /> locked in to a particular use,but doesn't want that use)? <br /> 3. How should the City manage parking in The COR?Should the City establish a new strategy for shared <br /> parking? <br /> 4. How should the City define parking calculations? <br /> 5. The remaining westerly leg of Ramsey Parkway— should that continue to have an enhanced design <br /> (green medians, enhanced plantings, etc. Similar to existing leg without one-way segments on larger <br /> stormwater feature in middle)? <br /> 6. Do we want to continue to allow uses with a drive-thru and gas stations? <br /> 7. How well does the market bear the original vision? <br /> 8.
