 Boulevard.

4. Discussion

 Handicap parking in the 100 block of Leon Sullivan Way - tabled on May 12, 2025

 This is for Sacred Heart Catholic School.

 Terry Allen said that for every square block the ADA provides that for every 20 parking spaces,
 specifically, in this case, metered spaces there needs to be at least one accessible space. Parking
 Operations reviewed the Leon Sullivan area. Their findings were, according to the sheet, in this area
 there could be some more, at least in one block if not three blocks, the City could use one space in
 every block. A square block is surrounded by what appears to be a square on the sheet, i.e. Leon
 Sullivan, Quarrier, Dunbar and then there is an alley going by the Catholic school. So, Leon Sullivan

 only has meters on Leon Sullivan. There are no meters on the Quarrier, Dunbar or Lee Street and
 none on the alley way either. In all of those blocks, the unit block, 100 and 200 blocks, Parking
 Operations recommended one additional handicap parking space in all 3 blocks. Typically, it is
 recommended that these spaces be placed at the corner because it is closest crosswalk.
 MOTION AND VOTE: Becky Ceperley made a motion that a meter be replaced on each of the three
 blocks in order to become ADA compliant. Pam Burka seconded the motion. The motion passed by
 a unanimous vote.

 Handicap parking in the 200 block of Brooks Street.

 Terry said that there was a request from a staff member that works inside CAMC’s plastic surgery
 center asking that additional handicap space be added to the 200 Block of Brooks Street. They did
 state that they had a handicap accessible space in their parking lot, but their parking lot is very small.
 They do see several patients that have handicap or accessible needs.

 Once Parking Operations did a review, their recommendations are that a handicap accessible parking
 space be added in the 100 and 200 blocks of Brooks Street. Terry said the recommendations come
 from their block review, not just the actual request.

 MOTION AND VOTE: Becky Ceperley made a motion that a meter be added to the 100 and 200 blocks
 of Brooks Street. Pam Burka seconded the motion. The motion passed by a unanimous vote.

 A request to add a “NO PARKING IN TURNAROUND” sign at a turn around on Beverly Dr.

 Matt Hartline said people are parking in this area late at night.

 MOTION AND VOTE: Becky Ceperley made a motion that that a “NO PARKING IN TURNAROUND” sign
 be placed on Beverly Drive. Pam Burka seconded the motion. The motion passed by a unanimous
 vote.
