Mayor and Council,
Planning responded to Jeanne Lohof's email regarding expansion of the parking district. I have included it below as it
has been a few years since we went through the process. The email identifies how it gets accomplished.
Let me know if you have any questions,
Doug

Hello Jeanne,
I am reaching out to you to provide for the process in order to extend the permit area to include 5th street west
between 5th and 6th Ave West as mentioned in the email below. Per Ordinance 1759, in order to expand the permit
area a petition signed by 75% of the property owners of the facing avenue or street within the parking management
zone shall be presented to the City. The City has to approve the petition form as to make sure it is clear what the
property owners are signing off on. Once a petition is signed by the property owners, a public hearing will be scheduled
before the Planning Board and the Board will make a recommendation to the Council for their consideration. A quick
search indicates there are eight (8) property owners on 5th street west between 5th and 6th Ave West. Accordingly, you
would need to acquire six of their signatures.
I am happy to sit down with you or discuss the process if you would like and answer any additional questions on how to
proceed.

Dear Council Members:
I am emailing to let you know that I plan on attending the upcoming October 24th meeting.
I live at 540 5th street west. When permit parking was initiated on the east side of the high school there weren't any
students parking here. Now they have inundated this area creating many problems.
At the meeting I want to begin the process of extending the permit area to include 5th street west between 5th and 6th
Ave West.
Please advise me of any preparations needed prior to the meeting on my part.
Sincerely, Jeanne Lohof
