Dept. of Public Works’ – Live Oak Parking Plan project – is currently scheduled for the Bd of Supervisor’s April 13 agenda. Below see the email addresses of County decision makers having both big and/or small input on this project being approved.
A survey asking for resident opinions was posted on Nextdoor as well as posted during Manu’s 2 Zoom meetings. Survey or not – it’s important to voice your opinion “yay – I like it” or “nay including drop it”. See Nextdoor posts in PPt, Blacks Beach, NOpal Cliffs and Twin Lakes neighborhoods – search: live oak permit parking. Also contact Manu’s office and or Dept Public Works for updates.
Short overview of issues discussed: This proposed project expands the streets required to have permit parking in our beach neighborhoods PLUS raises parking costs: residents $75 per permit per car to park on street; visitors per car: 2hrs free then $2hr. Only payment allowed will be by mobile app vs. keeping kiosks which a non-tech or all cash person may want to use.
Per looking at the current program’s failures (in the red, weak enforcement), budget increases proposed in the new plan plus coastal equity issues raises questions in the views of many as to this program’s usefulness and how the proposed program is designed; implementation is scheduled for 5/1/2021.
