AB -103 Committee Downtown Planning - Goals and Priorities
This was scheduled for a study session on April 22.
Downtown Traffic Circulation
The Commission discussed the possibilities for easing the parking and
traffic circulation restrictions that will occur during construction of the
downtown parking garage at Keller Street and Western Avenue. Among the
ideas discussed were making Kentucky and Keller Streets one-way;
reassigning the automobile parking spaces on those streets to diagonal on
one side and parallel on the other; the timing and design of improvements
for the A Street parking lot; if the aforementioned streets were designated
one-way streets, which way would be preferable; the possibility of razing
the building on the Gervasoni property located at 120 Petaluma Blvd. North
(adjacent to municipal parking lot) ; the possibility of using the vacant lot
bounded by Water Street on the east, Western on the south and Petaluma
Blvd. North on the west (commonly referred to now as 'Dixie Flowers'); and
the possibility of utilizing a shuttle bus service from a proposed
employee/ shopper parking lot somewhat removed from the downtown area.
Adjourn
The meeting was adjourned at 4:35 p.m.
