Item No; 65
Date: July 27, 2015
Item/Subject: ORDINANCE, Amending Map Entitled "'Downtown Parking Management
District" by Creating Two 15 Minute Parking Spaces on Columbia Street and
Merchants Plaza
Responsible Department: Community and Economic Development
Commentary:
This ordinance amendment would designate two downtown parking spaces as 15 minute parking
spaces, one in Merchants Plaza, across from the top of Bangor Alley, and one on Columbia
Street, across the street from the Columbia Street Baptist Church. 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. This was reviewed and recommended by the Parking
Committee.
