Carrie Meyers with the North Beach Community Association gave a presentation entitled “North
Beach Parking Improvement Plan” and gave handouts. She presented a parking plan pointing
out the lack of parking and showed pictures of the empty privately owned lots that are being
utilized as parking lots. Mrs. Meyers also pointed out that the meters in North Beach were not
being serviced but Mr. Cantu with Parking Control assured her that they had been issuing
citations and that they were being serviced.
A motion was made by Ms. Gregory and second by Mr. Virts in support of the North Beach
Association in their quest for a site plan for parking improvements on city park land due to the
imminent construction of the bridge which should be completed by 2021.
Captain Sherman advised the balance of the fund for future projects is $168,570.20.
The Light Up CC Press Release will be scheduled soon due to completed repairs from Hurricane
Harvey. AEP handled the repairs and we were not billed for the cost.
Darlene will get more information on the curb repair and liability issue.
The Parking Study Execution Plan (Walker Parking Study) will be presented to City Council
with amendments sometime in April or May. Amendments were made due to recommendations
from this committee for section #53-257. Darlene will get a copy of the proposal amendments to

Presentation from IPS showed a variety of meters detailing all features of each. We will plan on
having a meeting next month on the first Wednesday to further discuss this issue.
