Committee approves two-hour parking on Maple Avenue to limit long-term student parking
Summary
To ease residential parking pressures from Carroll College students, the committee approved two-hour parking (except Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) on Maple Avenue between specified addresses.
The committee approved a restriction to allow two-hour parking along a block of Maple Avenue aimed at reducing long-term parking connected to Carroll College students. Staff explained that Carroll students were routinely parking on the block despite having campus parking and that the restriction would create space for residents and visitors.
Members discussed whether to limit enforcement to the academic year (for example, Sept. 1–June 1) but opted to approve the simpler sign wording — two-hour parking except Saturdays, Sundays and holidays — to avoid confusing drivers. Staff noted sign installation and modifications are straightforward and would be handled by Public Works.
