The presentation covered paid‑parking revenue, permit and overnight reservation income, and enforcement totals for the two months.

Key figures reported by staff: Shannon said “we had 991 tickets written in April. We had, almost 1,200... written in May,” and reported enforcement revenue of about $23,000 and $28,000 for those months respectively. She also said permit and overnight reservation revenue for April was “about $5,000.” The transcript includes other numeric lines that were unclear (for example revenue totals reported as \"173\" and \"245,000\" and later as \"$1.73\" and \"$2.80\"); staff figures above are presented as reported on the record and some items were ambiguous in the recording.

Shannon said the data show a compliance improvement compared with the prior year and attributed that to education and program changes including kiosk deployment. Committee members asked when the Glacier lot came online; Shannon said it opened in December after light poles were installed.

Committee questions focused on how kiosk and vendor integrations work, whether simplified pricing last year affected revenue (Shannon said no), and how many stalls exist citywide (staff said the exact stall count is available but was not recited on the record). Staff agreed to provide segmented revenue by vehicle ZIP code if possible and to investigate any ParkMobile/kiosk connectivity glitches reported by residents.

No policy or budget decision resulted from the report; the item was presented for committee information and follow‑up.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","06.26.2025 Parking Advisory Committee Meeting","oneSentenceSummary","Shannon, the city parking staff member, reported April and May parking figures and said compliance has improved following education and kiosk deployment.","taxTitle","Leavenworth, Chelan County, Washington","taxId",62259,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6183567,"Committee names ARC Architects consultant for parking‑garage site selection",100,475000,575000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5096407-8812f9b06debf9e89aa49c8c1c59460e&start=475&end=575","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5096407-8812f9b06debf9e89aa49c8c1c59460e/thumbnail_475000.jpg","/articles/6183567/Leavenworth/Chelan-County/Washington/Committee-names-ARC-Architects-consultant-for-parkinggarage-site-selection","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6183567-0bc08d50b1f451f85a2ea7d7c2bd4249/orig.mp4?Expires=1771167415&Signature=RioH0axtx5Mk459MorQ9az3sXvHmXPUjYnczG4sZ8oLbTW1OODrxFdkyonMsZwzfOubVt44bAog67SQzs5kASCcNPqV9Le3DgDOqdMCasxPPB5tiK96o6ex6IvXiZ-LxR0KOlwbnXm5XoSyXX7eaE4s03lDl-QnQfPQ0uikWzgGExEFrZ23igteItNl-o6t~9kjen6S26OJzzb-8AnSODDYM8~jmVCmjp4ckYsJz9P2puHHR~jgxHMup0s5xXwFd6eZefOL6AsQMPKUZJVyUfv4-DEiFOFJSd4YWIeNAYv9lsiNDYg~134Fs3Gx9z-GtBXSuxyOduAQAOCRQxk2U-A__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","A city selection committee unanimously ranked ARC Architects as the top firm to lead the first phase of a long‑planned parking garage project, a committee member said. Phase 1 will evaluate city‑owned sites within 1,000 feet of the gazebo and recommend a preferred location.

Why it matters: The committee has identified a parking structure as a multiyear solution to chronic downtown stall shortages; choosing a consultant starts the design and site‑selection work needed to scope cost and schedule.

Selection details: The interview panel included Shannon (staff), Courtney Porter (executive assistant), Bridal Bain (city engineer), Anne Hesburgh, Jesse Boyd and Jean Dawson. The panel interviewed four teams; ARC Architects of Seattle received the highest, unanimous scores. The firm will be supported by PCS structural engineers and a transportation consultant (name not stated in the meeting). A committee member said the firm is finishing the Front Street restaurant project and described the panel as “impressed.”

Next steps and timing: The committee member reported the city will contract with ARC Architects “for phase 1 very soon.” Committee discussion did not include a final contract vote or budget breakdown at the meeting; staff indicated contracting and scope will return to the committee or council as required.

No formal procurement vote was recorded on the public transcript; selection was reported as the unanimous choice by the interview panel.","A city selection committee unanimously ranked ARC Architects as the top firm to lead the first phase of a planned parking garage project, the panel reported.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6183572,"Leavenworth committee weighs limited free hours, resident permits and employee parking options",3344,61000,3405000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5096407-8812f9b06debf9e89aa49c8c1c59460e&start=61&end=3405","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5096407-8812f9b06debf9e89aa49c8c1c59460e/thumbnail_61000.jpg","/articles/6183572/Leavenworth/Chelan-County/Washington/Leavenworth-committee-weighs-limited-free-hours-resident-permits-and-employee-parking-options","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6183572-3ee4301d2c30dc1275ae4e57e4577047/orig.mp4?Expires=1771167415&Signature=A8dkKeMaRxcNESKTgvJNVz1bl6Vyxhy-PhQDtNVcdZCTUlAEixz47CI6GGXac~uaV4~wK63iPy-fkA0ttZRWfz5d-5Jgw7JSyFBAN9QgSkP6cem0PO11RchNF7~iVll4vzWDca73kVBcwTaR8gNa3fcKfC4b13nsazJJmrjtw52qIMmlU264OSMe0ojur5KLzjpDnNAg8QPp90MC5kVtxlqoJcRIeAe4XxW8C4QxvQ~IIipZoRDH72PxKSrB8PjjD1O0tDarMwIWoSuLSalO5A28m30CD4aMDdx~NslQuH4Vb7cZnbnqfHkF3p5zOVApkYpOHUlDrkti96u9fPY15A__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Members of the Leavenworth Parking Advisory Committee discussed multiple proposals to give local residents more access to downtown parking without disrupting turnover for visitors and businesses. The committee heard a mix of suggested options from members and dozens of public commenters but took no formal action at the meeting.

Why it matters: Committee members said a clear, simple program is essential to avoid adding workload for parking staff and to prevent locals gaming the system. Public commenters said current fees and enforcement discourage residents from shopping or dining downtown and urged the city to protect access for people with disabilities and employees.

Committee discussion focused on a few repeat ideas. Several members recommended a simple, easy-to-understand benefit for residents such as a limited free allotment tied to license-plate registration (examples discussed included two hours free or a one- to three-hour free window). Jean Dawson and others suggested expanding eligibility beyond city limits (for example to the Cascade School District) so more year-round locals can use the benefit. Erica (committee member) proposed limiting any free program to street metered spaces Tuesday through Thursday to target slower days for tourism.

Members repeatedly distinguished employee parking from resident convenience parking: staff, several committee members and the prior Rick Williams study were cited as saying employees historically occupy a large share of downtown stalls and that any local program should not create all‑day options that would worsen that problem. Jesse (committee member) and others said an employee-focused solution (for example, off-corridor lots or a dedicated permit) will likely need separate discussion and enforcement rules.

Residents who spoke at the meeting captured several practical concerns. April Welch and others described receiving repeated tickets while running short errands; Cindy and other longtime residents asked that accessible (ADA) stalls remain free and convenient. Multiple commenters suggested annual paid resident permits (a season‑pass model) as an alternative to daily freebies; Jeremy Tremblay pointed to Laguna Beach as a model where residents buy an annual pass and the city uses shuttles to move workers or visitors.

Technical and enforcement questions were raised repeatedly. Committee members and residents asked whether ParkMobile, Flowbird or other vendors can coordinate across lots so a registered resident plate cannot be used repeatedly at separate meters to extend free time; staff said systems can record license plates but that integration and occasional connectivity issues need testing. Shannon (parking staff) said the city will test vendor integrations and asked residents to report ParkMobile or kiosk glitches when they occur.

No formal motion on a resident benefit passed. Committee members agreed this topic will require more meetings, clearer cost/revenue modeling and proactive community outreach. Staff were asked to prepare additional information on vendor capabilities, possible boundaries for eligibility and communication plans so the committee can revisit a narrower set of options.","Members of the Leavenworth Parking Advisory Committee and dozens of residents discussed several proposals to ease pressure on downtown parking, including limited free hours for residents, expanded permit zones and separate employee parking strategies.
