Overnight parking
in Riverside
Parking Lot
Jim Collins
Dan Schetter
Jim Collins said the hotel requested overnight parking in the Riverside Lot for
vehicles that do not fit in the ramp, such as a bus.
Dan Schetter, of the Best Western Hotel, said there are 176 rooms in the hotel
and 200 parking spaces in the ramp. He explained there are times when the
Convention Center and the hotel have multiple events on the same evening
which creates a parking shortage. He told that vehicles such buses, motor
homes and those towing boats or trailers cannot access the ramp. He requests
overnight parking in the Riverside Parking Lot for those times when guests
cannot park in the ramp.
There was discussion. Jim Collins will discuss the matter further with city staff
and the parking consultants and report back to the Board. In the meantime, he
said he would ask the police department to not ticket in this lot if the hotel calls
in advance to request the limited overnight parking.
