Commission issues neutral recommendations on public-parking-incentive referral to Board of Trustees
Summary
On a Board of Trustees referral to establish a public-parking-incentive zoning overlay, the Planning Commission voted to send a neutral resolution recommending height guidance, 24-hour residential-only app-linked parking and heightened security; no ordinance was enacted by the commission.
The Planning Commission continued discussion on a Board of Trustees referral to amend Chapter 345 (Zoning) to establish a public parking incentive overlay. After discussion commissioners agreed to send a neutral resolution to the Board of Trustees with several recommendations: provide height guidance, ensure parking spaces linked to a 24-hour access residential-only app, and require heightened security measures. The commission did not adopt an ordinance or binding rule; the item remains a referral to the Board of Trustees for further action.
The neutral resolution is intended to give the Board of Trustees guidance on design and operational features for any future zoning incentive. The commission discussed limiting commercial parking and assuring public-safety measures as part of the recommendation.
The Board of Trustees will receive the commission's neutral resolution and may elect to incorporate the recommendations into proposed local law language or pursue additional stakeholder outreach.
