Schedule II is proposed to be amended by adding the Ingraham Avenue lot as a parking meter zone. The Parking Management Team and the Joint Venture have requested changes to the 4-hour parking restrictions in the downtown area. A summary of the changes is as follows: (1) Lots 8, 24 & 25, Block 92, directly behind Hand's and Elwood's to 2-hour vs. 4-hour (2) Lots 10-16 and Lot 19 - rear area Hand's to 8-hour vs. 4-hour (3) Lots 14-16, Block 101 - Chamber of Commerce lot to 2-hour vs. 4-hour (4) Lots 8 & 16, Block 109 by Ace Hardware to 2-hour vs. 4-hour (5) Lots 6-11, near Vittorio's to 8-hour vs. 4-hour They are also requesting that the parking restrictions apply year round. As the code is now written these restrictions do not apply from June 1st through September 30th of each year. Staff is also recommending that Lots 7 and 13, Block 77 behind Worthing Park be changed to 2-hour limits versus 4-hour. The reason for the changes is to make these lots more accessible to shoppers and encourage employees of downtown businesses to park in the 8-hour lots which are further away from the business area. In addition, staff is recommending a change to Schedule II to allow metered parking in the Ingraham Avenue parking lot. At first reading on January 7, 1997, the Commission passed the ordinance by a vote of 4 to 1 (Mr. Randolph dissenting). Recommend approval of Ordinance No. 4-97 on second and final reading. ref: agmemo9 ~~ ~ ~ / MEMORANDUM TO: David T. Harden, City Manager FROM: ~obert A. Barcinski, Assistant City Manager SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM - JANUARY 7, 1997 APPROVAL FIRST READING DATE: December $0, 1996 Action City Commission is requested to approve on First Reading Ordinance No. 4-97 amending City Code Chapter 73 "Parking Schedules" Section I A(2) B, and D to change parking hours for certain lots in the downtown area from 4 hour limits to 2 hour and 8 hour limits and to enforce restrictions year round, and Section II "Parking Meter Zones" to add the Ingraham Avenue Parking Lot. If approved on First Reading, second reading and public hearing will be held on January 21, 1997. Background The Parking Management Team along with the Joint Venture are requesting changes to the four hour parking restrictions in the downtown area. A summary of the changes is as follows: 1. Lots 8, 24, and 25 block 92 directly behind Hands and EIwoods to 2 hour vs. 4 hour 2. Lots 10-16 and lot 19- Rear area Hands to 8 hour vs. 4 hour 3.

Lots 6-11, near Vittorio's to 8 hour vs. 4 hour They are also requesting that the parking restrictions apply year round. As the code is now written these restrictions do not apply from June 1st through September 30 of each year. Staff is also recommending for consideration that lots 7 and 13, block 77 behind Worthing Park also be changed to 2 hour limits versus 4 hour. The reason for the change to 2 hour limits is to make these lots more accessible to shoppers. This change would thus encourage employees of the downtown businesses to park in the 8 hour lots which are further away from their business area. In addition to the above changes staff is recommending a change to Section II to allow metered parking in the Ingraham Avenue Parking Lot. Subject:Agenda Item City.

Wll#~m 300 VV~ Aitlmtic Avenue D~ray Beach, FL 33444 RE: Parking time Ilmite for Municipal Parking Lots Dear L[ McCollom: On May 23, 1996, the Parking Management Team, a boa~l cxmstltuted by the City Commission to make recommendatlofms on parkin9 matters In the downtown, disr~s~ time limits for municipal parking lots. The discussion centered on Ihs municipal parking lot behind Hube~' Drugs, Hand's, and others. The problem occumng Is that business ownem and their empIoyee~ are parking all day in the moist convenient spaces, leaving short-time parkers (customers) with less desirable spaces. Officer Settelen t~as observed this condition as well as other mercl~ants in the vicinity. We, therefore, suggest thrice actions: 1. Change parking time limits on all the spa~es between Hand's, HubeFs, et al ar~l the Hand's warehouse to a two-hour limit. These spaces are the fiat double loaded row of perking spaces behind Hand's and others. 2. Leave the remaining sl~aces to eight-hour limits. 3_ Enforce all year the two-hour limit. in addition, we recommend that the municipal lot by fie li~ be enforced all year for two-hour limits and that the municipal lot by Vlttorto's restaurant Imave no tirr~ limits o~ an eight-hour limit. Our ~ndation for the tWO lots iS to encourage empi~ees and business owners Io utilize long-term parking, leaving the more desirable parking for consumers. With respect to the municipal Io~ adjacent to 110 East Atlantic. we recommend that no action be taken, it currently has a four-hour Ilmtt. This bloci[ is bain9 developed by Um CRA and the City. Please feel free to call Chris Bsm3wn at the CRA, 276-8640, or me, 278-8362, to discuss this matter. If you feel a rn~i~tin9 Is tn orcler, then I suggest we meet with Officgr ,~Y,4eien and Chris Brown. Thank you for your coopecation in this matter.

PWDADW P02 Delray Beach Police Department ! July 12, 1996 Clmrtmson Janet Onnen Parking Management Team 207 East Atlantic Avenue Dclray Beach, FL 33444 Dear Ms. Onnen: The Police Department has considered the request forwarded by the Parking Management Team regarding time parking in our downtown parking areas, and we certainly support thc rcGommcudation~ madc by thc Parking Management Team. I would point out that thc "down side" to thc regommendafions is that rather than standardizing pafldng limits for thc benefit of public awareness, it would seem that we are in fact, by vifluc of thc vurious fimc limits imposed, potentially creating a situation that will be confusing to lhosc parking in our downtown incas. I am sure that thc Parkin8 Mmmgcmcm Team has given consideration to this issue prior to making thc recommendations included m your letter. We do nonctheless support the recommendation of the Parking Management Team and appreciate the time and effort that Team Members spend on considering these issues in the interest of all of our dtiz~s.
