Event organizers propose parking reconfiguration so Lebanon car show and Playhouse performance can coexist May 9
Summary
An events coordinator proposed a parking and barricade plan to accommodate both the Lakers car show and a Playhouse performance on May 9, preserving handicap parking and offering to coordinate barricades and police assistance; committee members agreed it was a workable solution.
An events coordinator told the Lebanon City Council committee that a negotiated parking plan should allow the Lakers car show and a Playhouse performance to take place on May 9 without cancelling either event.
The coordinator described reallocating parking so car‑show spaces would be moved off Saint Clair and into the Pearl Street lot and the first two blocks of Saint Louis Street while the Playhouse would use the block from Saint Clair west to the City Hall parking lot. The coordinator said reserved signs could be posted and that handicap spaces would remain available: "That would give them the first 2 blocks of Saint Louis Street, the parking lot, and Pearl Street," the coordinator said. Committee members asked for police assistance if needed to enforce barricades and parking restrictions.
Why it matters: The plan aims to avoid cancelling community events and preserve accessible parking. Committee members praised the compromise; staff and the coordinator agreed to refine maps and logistics for formal inclusion on future event checklists.
Next steps: The events coordinator will work with staff to finalize barricade placement, signage and any required police support; no formal council vote was taken during the meeting.
