*Funds are subject to the City Controller's determination of availability; if funds are unavailable, as solely determined by the City Controller,
then the authorization of the expenditure of such funds shall be void and of no effect.
Purpose of Request:
With the increase in development activity in the East Bank neighborhood, on-street parking is
seeing higher utilization. Currently, on-street parking in the East Bank is unrestricted which leads
many to park their vehicles all day on the street. This further creates an issue for retailers who
can benefit from better turnover rates.
A study of current parking conditions and utilization will help assign appropriate parking
restrictions in the East Bank area. Public Works requests a budget approval of $17,500 to enter
into a professional services agreement with Rich & Associates to conduct the study.
