Commissioners press developer and staff over three‑stall parking concession

Commissioners and a resident raised concerns about a proposed reduction to three on‑site parking stalls for the 15‑unit Old Town project, noting on‑street and city lots prohibit overnight parking and asking how tenant parking demand will be managed.

Commissioners questioned why the proposed project at 126 South J Street would provide only three onsite parking stalls, including one ADA stall, under a density‑bonus concession.

Staff replied the number was the result of discussion between the developer and planning staff based on available site space and required ADA dimensions.
