6 Proposed Recommendations  Increase hours of operations in the commercial zone form 6pm-10pm to improve turnover (support the elimination of the 1-hr of free parking between 4pm- 11pm)  Create a 2-hour parking zone along the park (Hanover Ave) to accommodate commercial demand.  Adopt flexible approach to parking management of the parking zones in order to handle parking demand and parking inventory

Residential  Permit parking only between 4pm-11pm (1-hr of free parking eliminated during these times only).  Zone 2 – Boundaries: Vine to the east, Rowland to the west, Park/Lombardy PL to the north and Floyd to the south.  Residential Permit parking restriction remains as is, with a 1-hour parking permit only zone
