AFTER-ACTION:
Comm. Malakoff provided preliminary comments. Thomas Mooney provided an overview of
the item. Saul Gross addressed the Committee and stated that while he agreed with the
concept of moving night clubs above the first floor that he did not believe it was the source
of the problem. He indicated that there were 2 main problems:
1. A restriction on parking west of Washington Avenue to residential parking only. ln order
to address the lack of parking he suggested more City garages be constructed.
2. The landlord selection of tenants has been poor. Because of the poor selection of
tenants, higher-end retail establishments are not as attracted to Washington Avenue.
Comm. Grieco indicated that residential uses were an important component. Steve Polisar
discussed night club and entertainment operations. Eric Barnes, owner of the Anglers
Hotels, expressed support for the proposal and the need to revitalize Washington Avenue.
Michael Larkin addressed the Committee on behalf of the owners of the 600 and 700 blocks
of Washington Avenue. Daniel Ciraldo recommended that illustrations be provided in order
to better assess the ramifications and future impacts of TDR's along Washington Avenue.
lssac Klein, a property owner along Washington Avenue, expressed concern with
Washington Avenue being a dead space and that any new investment or initiative would
have a positive impact. Frank Del Vecchio discussed the applicable charter provision and
the need for a complete zoning package. Comm Grieco indicated that he would like to see
