[OldNorth] Old North Parking

Hello Old North Resident,

As you know, the City is proposing to "dump" increased parking on the 
area northeast of Fifth and B and thereby to make our parking 
problems much worse.

They want to be this by reducing parking times in the western part of 
the downtown.

(This situation is explained in a pdf that will arrive separately 
after it is approved for sending--because of its size-- by Andy 
Wallace.)

The law that would make this happen comes up for a second reading this Tuesday.

Mike Harrington will pull it for discussion, I will make some or all 
of the remarks stated in the pdf Andy Wallace will send you soon, and 
Ken Hiatt of Planning will respond for the City (and agree with me).

We will prevail in turning back this change, I think,

What is more  important is the opening this event creates in speeding 
up City action on our parking problems.

Speaking at Public Comment time at 7;30 in support of broader reform 
of the central Davis parking scheme would be very helpful in moving 
the process along faster.

Thanks.

John Lofland
