On the agenda

As the city filed it

The Rowanwood Watermain replacement is a major construction project. Parking restrictions to safely accommodate the construction on Rowanwood Avenue and surrounding streets will temporarily displace residential permit parking. To mitigate the impact on residents with valid street parking permits, Engineering and Construction Services in consultation with Transportation Services recommends permit parking be implemented on a temporary basis on nearby streets, including Mathersfield Drive and Chestnut Park, where existing parking regulations can be adjusted to accommodate displaced permit holders.
