closed: Submission Received #214537

Traffic Related Complaints:

Other: Adding a no parking sign is even worse than not having one. There is already a terrible parking situation for the residents at Atlas on 17th. Bloomington’s parking situation is terrible and students are forced to park wherever and hope they aren’t getting a ticket. At least make it a pay to park so that some could still park there.

Responded to the requester and explained that paid parking would not address the emergency vehicle clearance concern on Englewood, so the restriction will remain.

I understand that parking near Atlas on 17th is difficult. The restriction on Englewood is there because vehicles parked on both sides can leave too little room for an emergency vehicle to get through. Charging for parking would still leave that clearance problem, so we are not planning to make this a paid parking area. I appreciate you raising the broader parking concern. We’ll keep it documented, though this street cannot serve as overflow parking where that would block emergency access.
