City of Morgan Hill Station Area Master Plan - February 2018

Station Area Master Plan – Transportation Context

• Encouraging residents to use their off-street parking spaces/garages for vehicle parking, and not for other types of storage, by organizing neighborhood clean- out days with free hauling service • Enforcing existing time limits along two-hour parking zones • Expanding the area of the two-hour parking zone south along Monterey Road to ensure that the prime parking spaces are not used by employees or other long- term parkers • Installing parking meters on downtown streets to encourage more turnover as well as serve as enforcement for time limits. Money collected from the meters could go into a parking benefit district. • Increasing or removing the parking time limits in the parking garage to encourage long-term parking to be located there • Creating private-public partnerships to allow public parking in private lots during weekday evenings, on weekends, and during special events • Working with property owners to improve the lighting and pavement conditions of private parking lots • Working with private property owners and business to identify appropriate locations for a unified valet parking system • Coordinating with businesses and designating appropriate dual valet and accessible parking drop-off areas on public streets for businesses that offer these services • Working with private property owners to bring non-conforming parking lots into compliance with accessible parking spaces when lots redeveloped or building permits are required for improvements • Improving parking wayfinding signage and installing signs (at facility entrances or at gateways to the Downtown) that indicate the number of available spaces in large public parking facilities • Reinstating an in-lieu fee for all types of new development or creating a parking benefit district for all redevelopment within Downtown as a funding program for future public parking facilities. Refer to Recommended Improvements Chapter of this Plan. • Creating a Parking Benefits District (PBD) which would ensure all revenue generated by parking meters, residential parking permits, or new development
