Residents living near St. Catherine's College have successfully petitioned to install permit parking
zones in their neighborhood. Zones will force students to park in the designated campus parking
lots rather than in front of residents' homes all day. Consequently, students now park just outside of
the zone. Now, residents have petitioned to basically enlarge the zone to include their residences in
the permit parking zone.
ADVANTAGESIFAPPROVED:
Residents will be able to park in front of their homes if they purchase a$10 permit for their car. Also,
residents will be able to have visitors and utility people park in front of their home rather than two
blocks away.
DISADVANTAGES IF APPROVED:
Residents pay $10 for each permit, each year. Non-residents will get tickets and may complain to
city forces.
