Main Street 15-Minute Parking Ordinance (D-2762-25)
Summary
A long-pending ordinance would set up 15-minute parking spots at the start of each block on Main Street from Knoll Court to 1st Avenue SE and regulate parking on Range Line Road. It's at its 21st reading and remains stuck in committee — downtown shoppers and businesses would be the ones affected.
