Concerns expressed by Council Members were the cost of marking tires and checking to see if cars had been moved, merchants parking in front of their stores, signage on meters, overnight parking in the 10-hour spaces, employee parking. Suggestions included review of removing parking meters from the off-street parking lots, possible color coding of new meters. John Holt, 42 Iris Street, said the old mechanical meters were unreadable; he had received a citation on Jefferson. He felt that if the old meters are kept, they need better signage. Keith Bautista, 3010 Stelling Way, DES Architects & Engineers, said his business is located near where the meters will be removed. He supported the recommendation presented to Council, but felt there should be an 8-hour parking limit during regular day-time business hours. He was informed that if the recommendation is approved, the City will work with employers to address employee parking and develop a Parking Management Plan.
