2. The commons board shall review at least annually the mix of types of events held in the commons and make recommendations to achieve a balance of the following goals for the public space:
a. Inclusion: a variety of diverse events, which would appeal to different cultures and tastes, to ensure that all members of the community feel welcome and encouraged to use the commons;
b. Activity: frequent events so the commons is alive, active, and well-used;
c. Revenue: maximize revenue to the extent possible without sacrificing the above two goals.
3. The Commons Board shall track the nature of events (private, public interest, entertainment, etc.) to help evaluate compliance with the above goals. (Ord. 11-10 § 1 (part), 2011)
