first reviewed over a year ago, that no change should be made.
A current review was undertaken during a period in the month of
-.May and again for a two week period in the month of June. Occupancy
of the metered spaces at 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. and of the public
parking spaces on the Hospital Grounds was checked. The exact counts
are in our Committee files. These counts revealed a less than 50
percent occupancy of the metered spaces at each checked time for both
months. The review also revealed that quite a few spaces were available
in the south lot on the Hospital Grounds.
The conclusion from this review is that the time limits on the
meters could be extended. It is the recommendation of the Parking and
Traffic Committee that the meter limits be changed on these parking
.paees meters on Second Street S.W. west of Eleventh Avenue S. W. from
30-60 minutes to 45-90 minutes.
Yours very truly,
