AGENDA STATEMENT
Item No. 4.
For Meeting of: March 26, 2024
ITEM TITLE: March 21 parking meeting update
SUBMITTED BY: Dave Zabel!, Interim City Manager
SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
As discussed during the March 19, 2024 presentation to the City Council regarding staff's
findings and preliminary recommendations with regard to improvement of the city-owned parking
lots within the downtown core and regulation of parking within the lots, staff conducted a March 21
public outreach meeting at City Hall to discuss the preliminary recommendations to the public and
receive input.
The meeting was not as well attended as the Special City Council meeting conducted earlier this
year, however there was a good cross-section of downtown business/property owners and
employees working in the downtown core that allowed for some very productive discussion.
Staff is compiling and evaluating the feedback from the meeting and from businesses otherwise
having weighed in on the preliminary recommendations. Staff will update the Council on what we
heard and present final recommendations.
