Trustees set a March 23 hearing on proposed Sunday meter enforcement to address Mamaroneck Avenue congestion
Summary
Staff proposed metering Sunday parking from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on portions of Mamaroneck Avenue to reduce double-parking and improve turnover; trustees requested a map of affected zones and agreed to a public hearing on March 23.
Trustees and staff debated whether to expand metered parking to Sunday mornings during the March 9 work session and agreed to hold a public hearing on March 23. Staff presented the proposal as a turnover and safety measure, saying the change is "not about revenue. It's really about managing the parking during those time periods."
Trustees asked staff to prepare a clear map showing which blocks and parking zones would be affected (board members referenced zones 1, 2 and 3 on Mamaroneck Avenue and nearby Phillips Park Road). Some trustees questioned whether meters will solve peak-demand caused by church services and businesses and proposed alternative near-term measures such as signage, traffic-direction staffing or targeted enforcement.
The board did not adopt an ordinance at the meeting; it directed staff to prepare outreach materials and a map for the hearing so residents can comment at the March 23 meeting.
