Newell, Traffic Engineer��u� I <br /> SUBJECT: Ordinance Authorizing the Establishment of Angled Parking �i, <br /> in the 300 to 500 Blocks of East Main Street I <br /> At the October meeting of the Traffic and Parking Commission, the Commission approved a I' <br /> request from City staff to recommend the installation of angled parking on a portion of Main I�� <br /> Street between Franklin Street and Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive. I <br /> In an effort to increase available parking in the downtown area, staff has determined that I <br /> angled parking can safely be provided on a portion of East Main Street, east of Franklin Street. ', <br /> This will add between nine and ten spaces of on-street parking. The angled parking improvement I <br /> will only extend down a portion of Main Street since the street narrows somewhat, as shown on <br /> the attached drawing. ' <br /> This proposal is consistent with earlier pazking recommendations set forth by the Downtown <br /> Decatur Council. I <br /> Staffwill be present to answer any questions the Council may have.
