1. Portland’s Northwest District Parking Plan Development

2. Why Manage Parking? More people want to park than there are parking spaces available. Residents, visitors and employees are competing for the same limited number of parking spaces. Downtown employees are using NW as a park and ride. Potential business customers are avoiding the district because parking is difficult. Events at Jeld-Wen contribute to an already overcrowded parking situation. All of these parking constraints are impacting the district's livability.

3. The Vision for the District From Adopted NW District Plan (2009) Uniquely vibrant and livable environment. A number of distinct, but well connected places. Mixed use main street corridors, where commercial and institutional uses are concentrated. A diversity of land uses. A variety of housing sizes and types – diverse population. New mixed use and commercial development – providing additional employment. The NWD parking plan must support this vision.

4. Project Goals and Objectives From Council Resolution – Adopted October 21, 2009 Better manage on-street supply for residents, businesses and visitors through creation of a “pay-to-park” district. Tailor time limits to encourage turnover, discourage commuter and PGE Park (now Jeld Wen) parking where appropriate. Create a permit program that exempts residents and a certain number of employees from the “pay-to-park” limits – encouraging non-SOV modes. Establish a Transportation & Parking Management Association Develop a parking revenue allocation plan 4
