Parking permits come to Encinitas
With high-density development and inadequate on-site parking requirements come parking permits.
With some “heartburn” and concerns about setting a citywide precedent, the Encinitas City Council agreed Wednesday, Feb. 22, to establish an overnight parking permit program for a Via Molena area neighborhood troubled by crime and late night noise.
“I will admit I have a lot of consternation because I would like to help your neighborhood,” Councilmember Allison Blackwell, whose district includes the area, said before the vote.
Councilmember Kellie Hinze noted that Encinitas has many soon-to-be-built apartment complex projects in the works and said she worried that these new projects, which have much lower parking requirements, will generate many more requests for resident-only parking from neighboring homeowners.
