The City Council and Mayor hereby establish, as attached hereto,
initial fees, rates and terms for parking on all streets, ways, highways
and roads, along with all municipal parking lots,[1] all as shown on the Central Business District Parking Map dated 8/17/2011, as last revised on 5/11/2022, filed in the office of the City Engineer, Plan 2B/3418, as may be amended from time to time. When the provisions of this section conflict with the schedules of Chapter 240, the provisions of the schedule shall prevail.
[1]
Editor's Note: Said schedule is included at the end of this chapter.
The following process shall be utilized to manage the use and
occupancy of all parking areas within the Central Business District
by adjusting parking fees, rates and terms from time to time to manage
the use and occupancy of the parking spaces for the public benefit:
A.
To accomplish the goal of managing the supply of parking and to make
it reasonably available when and where needed, a target occupancy
rate of 85% is hereby established.
B.
At least annually, and not more frequently than quarterly, the Parking
Administrator or Parking Consultant shall survey the average occupancy
for all streets, ways, highways and roads, along with all municipal
parking lots, within the Central Business District that have paid
parking. Based on the survey results, the Parking Administrator or
Parking Consultant shall propose to the Central Business District
Parking Commission an adjustment of the rates up or down in twenty-five-cent
intervals to seek to achieve the target occupancy rate. The Central
Business District Parking Commission shall consider the Parking Administrator's
proposal to adjust parking rates and make a recommendation to the
Mayor and City Council.
