11 <br /> Mr. Lynch said he thinks the Service District is a decent idea whose time has not <br />come yet. Mr. Lynch said there are a number of developments happening downtown that <br />will bring focus to the area for the next couple of years. Mr. Lynch said he prefers to <br />wait on this proposal. <br /> <br />Mr. Schilling said he agrees in large part with Mr. Lynch's comments, but would <br />be anxious to hear what other people have proposed. <br /> <br /> Ms. Richards said the challenge to the City w ill be how to repair the mall bricks, <br />improve lights, and create an urban design plan. <br /> <br /> Mr. Cox said that long - term maintenance of the mall is not funded. Mr. Cox <br />suggested considering a Mall Director to work out of City Hall. <br /> <br /> There was insufficient su pport to put the Service District on a future agenda. <br /> <br /> Mr. Cox said he thinks it would be appropriate to have a discussion about the <br />Western Bypass at the time of the TIP work session. <br /> <br /> Mr. Lynch said he thinks it would be helpful to have a list of proje cts again, and <br />said the City's position is difficult to represent on the MPO without a discussion of what <br />Council wants to see. <br /> <br /> Mr. Caravati agreed that Council needs to have the discussion and either direct or <br />not direct its MPO representatives. <br /> <br /> It was agreed that Council would hold a work session on the TIP prior to the <br />th <br />October 7 meeting. <br /> <br /> Mr. Lynch said he has written a letter to the Albemarle County Planning <br />Commission regarding Albemarle Place, which includes conditions that the City would <br />lik e the Planning Commission to consider. <br /> <br /> Mr. Schilling said he has some concerns, but because of the lateness of the <br />meeting he is not going to bring them up at this time. <br /> <br /> It was agreed that Mr. Lynch could attend the Planning Commission meeting if he <br />ch ooses, but without representing other Councilors. <br /> <br /> Mr. Cox said that those who have an issue with the interchange resolution need to <br />buckle down and meet with groups. He said when something comes on an agenda, it <br />should be acted on, and if Council is not ready to act, it should not be put on the agenda. <br /> <br /> Council reconvened in closed session. <br /> <br /> On motion by Mr. Schilling, seconded by Mr. Lunch, Council certified (Ayes: <br />Mr. Caravati, Mr. Cox, Mr. Lynch, Ms. Richards, Mr. Schilling.
