Currently no parking is permitted on either side of 1st
street North between 5th/17th Avenues. Some past
Council resolution established this regulation but it
cannot be found in City records.

all parking. It however gives the city parking options

the parking ban now in force on all segments except
between 8th/12th Avenues. Even then, some parking
could be allowed between 8th/11th Avenues. (See
details in the resolution.)
