These parking spaces will allow downtown businesses and residents to load and unload more easily, and be available to all downtown businesses and residents, not just those with commercial vehicles. The parking spaces are also intended to reduce the incidence of illegal parking during loading and unloading, including parking on sidewalks. Staff recommends waiving second reading, given the urgency of the need for these parking spaces and the desire to prevent further damage to City sidewalks.
