RE: ADA Parking Problem
The Downtown Study did look at the number of handicapped spaces and the
number of spaces near businesses that provide basic services - drug stores,
banks etc. The study suggested changing some spots to 15 or 1 hour spots
and having parking spaces farther from Main Street designated as 8 hour
spots ( with the idea that employees would park in those spaces). One
concept was to put a parking structure either at Main and 3rd or near the
High School - both of these suggestions were not well received by attendees
at the public sessions.

This would seem to indicate a lack of handicapped spaces. Anyone know, or
did the downtown study address this?
