Did anyone attend the CRUNCH! neighborhood meeting?

If anyone here attended this meeting, could you report on it?

I have a feeling that there is coordinated opposition to CRUNCH! given the wording of the Davis Action Group e-mail regarding this meeting, and the fact that Alderman Gewirtz chose to attend this meeting instead of the BiBim meeting.

Given the drama involving what is now "Rock N' Fitness," I was hoping CRUNCH! might be able to serve as a viable alternative, especially since I have little faith that "Rock N' Fitness" will survive more than a year.

From what I gathered, the opposition centered around the fact that the gym will have no parking, there are already "enough" gyms in the area, and the belief that the business isn't viable because membership goals are too high.

The point is that urban areas clearly do not need to always have parking requirements for businesses. The point is not that finding residential parking in Davis is as difficult as finding it in Manhattan.
