Neighbors press parking questions as seminary rebuild plans rely on shared high-school stalls
Summary
Neighbors asked whether the seminary rebuild reduces on-site parking and how shared parking with the high school will work; staff said the plan shows 12 on-site spaces, 21 school spaces on the plan and at least 50 nearby stalls counted toward code compliance (code requires 59 spaces).
Neighbors at the public-comment period pressed staff for specifics after the hearing presentation indicated the seminary project will rely, in part, on shared high-school parking. Scott Johnson said the site plan shows 12 on-site spaces and 21 spaces shown from the adjacent school; he said staff is counting at least 50 additional parking stalls to the south in calculating overall availability. "A code requirement would be 59 total spaces," Scott Johnson said during the discussion of parking counts.
Members of the public expressed concern about whether the new layout reduces the number of on-site spots previously available; staff and the hearing officer discussed past counts (13 on-site was cited in the record) and the revised plan showing 12. The hearing officer said staff would provide documentation on parking counts on request, and he closed public comment before announcing approval.
