This order proposes changes to the Parking Map in order to increase safety of downtown parking spaces and, where possible, add downtown parking spaces. This is the second major change in the way the City deals with parking downtown, the first being the enforcement changes that were implemented at the beginning of October, 2018. This order proposes to make changes in the Downtown Parking Management District to better align the City's parking with the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD), the American with Disabilities Act (ADA), and Department of Transportation (DOT) standards. This proposal applies the above standards to the current parking to identify areas where parking could improve. This includes adding spots where possible, removing unsafe parking such as those within a certain distance from intersections or crosswalks, increasing the size of parking spots to bring them more into alignment with standards, and accounting for slope and location when assigning handicap spots, among other things. These changes will increase the overall safety for drivers and pedestrians. The attached maps detail these proposed changes. The changes will add 66 parking spots and remove 35 for a net gain of 31 spots in the Downtown Parking Management District.
