On page 9 (SS53) of this document, written March 1, 2023; the consulting group hired by the city to study parking availability (Rick Williams consulting) specifically recommended city council to “Explore and evaluate residential parking permit programs, as may be requested by neighborhoods abutting the downtown commercial district.” This was a step that was simply skipped over by the inept city council.

City officials have absconded on their duty to properly consider downtown residents in their deliberations when crafting this outrageous “block rule” policy. They expect local homeowners and residents to give up their rights to travel freely to/from their homes during business hours. Egregious doesn’t even begin to describe the vacuity of this decision.

“Block Rule” means absurd and arbitrary enforcement of the most extreme parking rules in the nation against local residents that choose to park for more than 2 hours per day near their townhomes & apartments.

The city does not allow the issuance of parking permits for local residents, only for workers of nearby businesses. The need to harshly rebuke city council for this has become clear. Please join us and help us correct this egregious policy from incompetent local officials. City officials catering to the whims of local businesses over the citizens that elected them into office will not be tolerated.

Leave residents alone!
