Quarterly reports and an art-fair parking report showed parking revenue and occupancy were down compared with last year; the chair suggested Canadian wildfire smoke was likely responsible for the decline.

The DDA reviewed quarterly financial reports and a parking report for this year’s art fair; the chair said parking revenue and occupancy were down compared with last year’s results. The chair suggested the decline was “likely due to the impact of the Canadian wildfire smoke.”

Board members did not request a separate vote on the parking report; it was provided as an informational item in the packet.
