Planners propose slip lane, buffers and about 298 parking spaces for Community Block
Summary
Consultants proposed traffic and safety measures for the Community Block including landscape buffers, parking placement, a potential slip lane to slow traffic on Main Street, and a preliminary estimate of about 298 parking spaces to serve the block.
The team addressed circulation and pedestrian safety along Main Street, recommending landscape buffers, strategic parking placement and a proposed slip lane intended to slow traffic and separate vehicles from pedestrian areas. A relocation of a pedestrian crossing was proposed to better align with plaza access and event circulation.
Consultants provided a preliminary estimate of approximately 298 parking spaces serving the block. Councilmembers discussed balancing parking needs with fiscal responsibility and the possibility of shared or off‑site parking strategies as the design advances.
