Portland’s Northwest District Parking Plan Development – Meeting #11 — July 19, 2011 —

2002 Concept Outline and Proposed Approach 2002 CAC Concept Outline2011 Proposed Approach  W Burnside Street (south), NW 16th Avenue (east), NW Pettygrove Street (north), and NW 25th Avenue (west) SAME SAC recommendation to Council to immediately consider impacts North and West of the existing boundary. BOUNDARY Council directive establishes boundary for SAC work SAC recognizes spillover impacts and would be interested in broadening management area.

TIME LIMITS 2011 approach is simpler and easier to manage approach recognizes baseball is not being played, with approach that is complementary of soccer schedule CAC Concept Outline2011 Proposed Approach A 4 HR time limit proposed for most areas within the boundary except for an area near PGE Park where shortened time limits are needed during the PGE Park season. Visitor time limits for the program area will vary by time of year. During April through October, time limits designed to discourage parking by PGE Park Patrons will be in effect (2HR, 3HR, 4HR) by distance from PGE Park The time limits will be relaxed to 4 HR’s throughout the program area during the off season. A combination of 90 minutes, 2 HR and 3HR in place throughout the year. 20 Day “Event Overlay” More consistent with policy intent on turnover, “commercial activity” and NW 21/23 rd as retail node.

2002 Time Limits: Event Season Map is April – October (PGE Park Event Season) Entire area 4 HRS (November – March)

2011 Time Limits – Year Round 20 Day Event Overlay (TBD)

METERS 2011 SAC approach creates logical first step to parking management and meeting Council directive for establishing a pay-to-park district approach can be amended and/or expanded through TPMA. More cost effective than 2002 approach and provided in a manner that meets goals for turnover and mitigation CAC Concept Outline2011 Proposed Approach In place throughout entire district. Meters located within a “commercial zone” between NW 20 th (west), NW 24 th (east), Burnside (south) and NW Pettygrove (north)

HOURS OF OPERATION 2011 approach more consistent with downtown/Pearl. Easier to communicate and allows for management of only event days rather than seasons better for evening businesses as enforcement ends at 8PM versus 10PM (April – October) 2002 CAC Concept Outline2011 Proposed Approach  10 AM – 10 PM (Monday – Saturday) during PGE season.  10 AM – 6 PM (Monday – Saturday) off-season.  Free Sunday  9 AM – 8 PM (Monday – Saturday)  “Event Overlay” for event days.  Free Sunday

USE OF PERMIT 2011 approach better manages red zone for customer/visitor access and availability CAC Concept Outline2011 Proposed Approach  Permits allowed in all areas/all streets during enforcement hours. Permits not allowed in “red zone” (2 Hour Only metered) during enforcement hours.

GUEST PERMITS Guest coupons available 2011 rate attempts to bring rate closer to 2011 pricing. Concern that rate will create “market” for purchasing books by some residents for sale to downtown employees.

PERMIT RENEWAL Develop “proof” standards and penalties. Program to deal with employee turnover.

Residents must provide proof of residence and a copy of their vehicle registration to qualify for a permit. Any abuse of the program regulations may result in the cancellation of the permit. SAME for residents Employees must provide proof of employment within district boundary. Quarterly program for employees (turnover) SAME for abuse
