1 Parking Fund for Purposes of Constructing Interim Parking
n the Downtown area.
Responsible Department:
City Manager
Commentary:
Construction of the new parking garage, while providing a
long-term solution to the parking problems of a portion of the down-
town area, will create animmediate short-term parking problem.
Approximately 130 permit spaces will be .lost during construction. In
addition, a small portion of the stop and shop lot will also be lost.
Staff has developed a number of proposalsto address this short-
term problem. A temporary 100 space parking lot is proposed for the
Front Street area adjacent to the tank farm. In addition, a temporary
50-60 space lot may be constructed on the old gas works property site.
This may also address parking problems relating to reconstruction of
Main Street. The entrance to the stop and shop lot must also be
relocated and the attendant 'building moved. As a separate item, the
current v
policies in. place for the stop and shop lot must be reviewed
toinsure rapid turnover for shoppers. Staff will be prepared to
fully discuss our temporary options at the meeting.
These funds are
required i order to fund the construction work
to be carried out by our crews to prepare these temporary facilities.
The actual cost may be substantially less. However, Our feeling is
it is better at this point to provide the maximum funds which may be
required in order t0 ie that no delays d experienced. your
approval of the attached order is requested. e
