The residents specify that parking spaces are primarily occupied by non-residents visiting the Eddy Street Commons establishments on Friday through Sunday nights, 7:00 p.m. to 3:00 a.m., limiting parking access at their residences. Existing Conditions Currently parking is restricted from 9am to lam on ND home game days on various streets within the neighborhood. 4r MvO µ, ..... i Fci P� 4 SOLIth' Bend, i Re uirements of City Ordinance Figure 1 - Parking Study Location - Triangle Neighborhood Chapter 20, Article 10 of the South Bend Code of Ordinances outlines the requirements for residential parking zone designation. In order to initiate a parking study, 2/3 of the lawful residents of the residential area must return a signed petition requesting residential parking within defined boundaries. In order for a residential parking zone to be warranted, the following must be observed during a parking study: 1. Non-resident vehicles occupy 25% of the total spaces available on the public streets within the residential area. 2. At least 75% of the total parking spaces in the residential area are occupied by motor vehicles. Parking Study Findings The petition received was signed by over 70% percent of the residents within the residential boundaries, which were defined as the Triangle Neighborhood. The streets were observed at 2- hour intervals between 7:00 p.m. and 3:00 a.m., Friday through Sunday, November 15-17, 2019. The results are provided in Table 1, with more detailed data tables attached. We deliver services that empower everyone to thrive!! As may be seen in Table 1, below, the criteria for at least 75% of the total parking spaces to be occupied is met only during 1 time period (Sunday, 1:00 a.m.) on both sides of Duey Street and on the east side of Georgiana Avenue. The 4 spaces on the west side of Georgiana Avenue, while meeting the criteria, are not in front of residences. For more detailed information refer the tables in Appendix A). Recommendation Based on the findings of the study, the criteria for establishing residential parking zones are not met, and it is therefore recommended that no residential parking by permit zones be established on any streets in the Triangle Neighborhood.
