Name: Updating Parking and Access Standards <br />Date: 10/24/23 <br />Page: 9 <br /> <br />H:\NEWB\0T6130130\2_Preliminary\C_Reports\9.28.23 Draft\NB_ParkingCode_covermemo_DRAFT10172023.docx <br /> <br />local streets is allow on north/west sides of streets within 24 hours after a major <br />snow event. Between 24-48 hours after a major snow event, cars may be parked <br />on the south/east sides of streets. <br />iii. Allow for private use agreement/licenses in certain situations. This would allow <br />a private entity full use of the on-street parking as agreed upon. This may help <br />with case by case situations. <br />iv. The Equity Commission discussed this as part of their review, and suggested a <br />review as to why parking lots were not being utilized. An example of an <br />apartment building was discussed and it was thought that perhaps the there <br />was parking that was not being used, so perhaps adding lighting, enclosed <br />spaces, safer walkways to far away parking could be a solution. Assigning stalls <br />may be an option to ensure residents have their own dedicated spots off-street <br />in preferred locations. <br /> <br />III. Discussion <br />As we move towards a final, proposed set of codes we would like to hear your thoughts about the <br />proposed parking regulations and answer the following questions: <br />• Are you comfortable with the proposed uses and reduction of parking stalls? <br />• Are you comfortable with the flexibility provided? <br />• Do you feel modern technologies like EV and modern movement like rideshare and on-demand <br />impacts are adequately addressed? <br />• Does the proposed integration of access and driveway standards meet your expectations? <br />• Do you support the proposed bicycle and pedestrian considerations? <br />• Have the goals of this update been addressed? <br />• Is there anything missing? Have we addressed your previous comments and needs? <br /> <br />IV. Next Steps <br />The next steps in this project are: <br />• Make any final changes based on Planning Commission and public feedback <br />• Begin drafting a short “best practices” handout or guide outlining the concepts which steered <br />finalization of New Brighton’s updated ordinance (Goal 9) <br />• Begin process of adoption and schedule a public hearing <br />
