SUMMARY: Construction of the Washington Avenue project will impact access to residences. At
times, staff will recommend that residents park away from the work area to avoid delays; on-street
parking on Washington Avenue and 11 th Street has been identified as the best parking location for
these individuals. It has been observed that much of the available parking in this area is being used
by Shipyard workers who park throughout the day. To accommodate the Washington Avenue
residents impacted by the construction project, staff recommends restricting parking to 2-hours
between the Manette Bridge and Pacific Avenue, with temporary residential parking permits issued to
local residents as requested. Upon completion of the project, the parking restriction will be removed.
BMC 10.10.040 authorizes the City Council to create restricted residential parking zones.
