I believe that this discussion originated around cars parking in the new bike lanes in uptown. There is obviously a demand there for people who want to shop in core which is great for core merchants which have a tendency to be more independently owned. Unfortunately a lot of people that drive cars, especially in the winter, want to park as close as possible to the business which they want to visit. I'm all for a vibrant core but if we do not accommodate these people they will shop the malls.
