• File created: 11/15/2021
• In control: Cincinnati City Council

• Title: MOTION, submitted by Councilmembers Seelbach and Young, WE MOVE that the Administration convert the underutilized block of W 12th, between Central Ave & Central Parkway to long term metered parking at the same rate structure as the adjacent parking in existence on Central Ave, for the purpose of providing price sensitive workers & visitors increased parking options while better utilizing a city asset. This block of Parking in the West End adjacent to Over-the-Rhine has one of the lowest meter utilizations in the greater Downtown area, at below 15% utilization on average, as compared with the national standard goal of 85% utilization (for comparison, Vine Street often surpasses 90% utilization). Providing price sensitive low & moderate wage workers and guests an appropriately priced long term parking solution in a low demand area will increase overall meter utilization & provide diverse parking options for the urban core.
