Mather Terrace
A resident of Mather Terrace made us aware of concerns about parking of vehicles on this very narrow street which can result in an obstruction to property access and impeding emergency service vehicles The street is 13 - 14 in width which is far less than the width necessary to support on-street parking and a minimum travel lane The narrow width is further restricted during the -vinter months because of snow banks Over the last couple of years DPW has installed temporary no parking signs under police order to provide proper access The recommended ordinance revision is as follows which is intended to address the verified concern

A resident of Guernsey Avenue made us aware of concerns about parking of vehicles on this very narrow street which can result in an obstruction to property access and impeding emergency service vehicles The street is about 16 in width which is less than the width necessary to support on-street parking on both sides with a remaining minimum travel lane of9 The narrow width is further restricted during the winter months because of snow banks Further complicating the matter is the parking of vehicles close to the intersection ofTremont Street whereby a vehicle attempting to enter the intersection is unduly restricted leading to concerns about safety and motorist convenience Parking near the intersection results in an obstruction of emergency access The recommended ordinance revision is as follows which is intended to address the verified concern

Barre Street
The owner of the business located at 78 Barre Street (corner of Hubbard Street) has asked the City to consider implementing a short term parking ordinance for the two spaces located immediately in front of the store for the convenience of the customers The owner reports that the spaces are frequently used for long term parking by people who work or live nearby thus limiting convenient access to the store The police department was asked to look in to the matter confirming long term parking use and has recommended the short term ordinance be implemented as soon as possible to help resolve this ongOing conflict PrOviding short term parking at this location is consistent with past practice when a small grocery store occupied the building but that ordinance was subsequently rescinded The recommended ordinance revision is as follows which is intended to address the verified concern
