Primary Issues to Consider
. What are the changes recommended by HBCA?
. The easterly double row of Lot SODA and the westerly double row of Lot
600 (on either side of 10th Avenue) would become all-day parking.
. The eastern side of the double row abutting Tenth Avenue North on Lot
600 would be designated all-day permit parking and the balance of the
rows will be free.
. The remainder of Lot SOOA would become 90-minute parking. All of the
20 stalls in Lot SOOB (located north of the Boston Garden Restaurant)
would also become 90-minute parking.
. The remainder of Lot 600 would remain 3-hour parking. Enforcement
hours would be from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.
. This proposal would create 56 all-day free parking stalls (includes 18
. permit only stalls) and 94 ninety-minute parking stalls. See attached map.
. These changes would be reviewed in three months.
. What are the impacts of the proposed changes?
. The proposed changes would satisfy both short and long term parking
needs.
. The proposed permit parking area on the westerly side of Lot 600 (18
spaces) would only allow permit parking, Currently, three-hour is allowed
as well as permit parking.
. The proposed changes would be reviewed in three months and may be
changed back to original times if staff feels the changes are not working.
. What were the Zoning & Planning Commissions comments?
. The Zoning & Planning Commission reviewed the recommendation at the
December 29th meeting and felt it was acceptable.

. Other Issues
. The new time limits could be confusing as these time limits/ signage
would not conform to current time limits/signage in other lots. This will
need to be evaluated as part of the three month review.
. City staffwill request the HBCA Board, at their next meeting, to expand
the Parking Committee to include representation from the entire
downtown parking system area, and address the broader issues such as
capacity, funding, employer/employee/customer parking and use of ramp
over the coming months.
