Neighborhood Outreach As noted earlier, based on the complexity of any parking program, staff is recommending that a neighborhood communication strategy specifically related to parking be well thought out, and discussed with Council. Staff proposes that much of the communication be accomplished through Neighborhood Associations and other established neighborhood groups. As the new programs and codes are adopted, staff can develop a communication plan, as well a “parking toolkit” that will allow each neighborhood to better understand which parking programs may work for their neighborhood. Next Steps At the City Council’s guidance: · Staff will prepare City Code amendments and bring the proposed code amendments to the City Council for approval. · Staff will finalize the Residential Parking Permit Program Policy document and bring it to the City Council for final approval. · Staff will fully evaluate the resources required to implement and effectively enforce these expanded programs, and provide the Council with options. · Once adopted, staff will reach out to the neighborhoods with the highest concentrations of parking-related requests and work with them to develop a plan to improve the parking conditions. ALTERNATIVES The Council may direct staff to explore other areas of parking policy not detailed in this report. FISCAL IMPACT Preparation of this report was accomplished with existing resources, and there are no new funding allocations requested at this time. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW As the lead agency under CEQA, the City of Redwood City has determined that this update does not constitute a project under CEQA as defined in CEQA Guidelines, Section 15378, as it has no potential for resulting in either a direct or foreseeable physical change in the environment. 9.A - Page 7
