What is not?

Increase parking inventory by regulating parking where allowed by code Implement an “electronic permit” system that can be enforced by License Plate Recognition (LPR) Eliminate the one (1) hour FREE parking in Zone 1 between the hours of 4pm and 11pm Consistent signage and way-finding program that is easy to understand Regulate the commercial area of the district (West Franklin St.) with paid parking Proposed Recommendations

  6. Proposed Recommendations Increase hours of operations in the commercial zone form 6pm-10pm to improve turnover (support the elimination of the 1-hr of free parking between 4pm-11pm) Create a 2-hour parking zone along the park (Hanover Ave) to accommodate commercial demand. Adopt flexible approach to parking management of the parking zones in order to handle parking demand and parking inventory

  7. Proposed Recommendations Zone 1 – Boundaries: Vine St. to the west, Harrison St. on the east, Park/Franklin north and Main to the South. Residential Permit parking only between 4pm-11pm (1-hr of free parking eliminated during these times only). Zone 2 – Boundaries: Vine to the east, Rowland to the west, Park/Lombardy PL to the north and Floyd to the south. Residential Permit parking restriction remains as is, with a 1-hour parking permit only zone
