Commission seeks rear-or-side parking for new downtown development; town lists about 160 public spaces
Summary
Planners agreed new parking in the downtown overlay should be located at the rear or side of buildings; staff noted the town currently provides approximately 160 public on-street parking spaces.
Heather Carrington told the Planning Commission that the Town of Lyndon provides approximately 160 public parking spaces along various downtown streets and reviewed examples of shared parking arrangements used by properties like the Freighthouse and Bag Balm.
The commission decided to add language to the Downtown Design Overlay District requiring new parking to be located at the rear or side of buildings to preserve street-facing storefronts and pedestrian character. The draft language will be added to the overlay for further review.
