A resident told the City Council on Sept. 17 that new Cal Poly Humboldt dorms have increased on-street parking in the neighborhood near I Street and Todd Court and urged the city to establish a preferential residential parking zone before additional dorm space opens. "Recently, Cal Poly Humboldt has opened their new dorms with 500 new students attending there. Unfortunately, they've not opened an adequate number of parking spaces," said Mike Edwards, who said he collected neighborhood signatures and submitted paperwork seeking a residential parking zone. Transportation staff and council members said the city and the university are looking for additional parking and that the matter is under review by the Transportation Safety Committee. Council members thanked the resident for bringing the petition to the transportation committee and said the item will be considered for placement on a future agenda for formal action. No immediate ordinance or regulation was adopted at the meeting.
