Explanation
Background: This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Service to enter into a contract for parking lot improvements in the King-Lincoln District. A new public parking lot will be constructed at 113 North 17th Street near the corner of Long Street. This land has been held in the Land Bank for two years. A long-vacant housing structure on the lot was demolished this summer to make way for redevelopment. Several nearby businesses will benefit from this new public parking lot. The public parking lot on the north side of Long Street across from the Lincoln Theatre was constructed in 1994 and is in need of re-paving, re-striping and pedestrian entrance improvements to better serve Lincoln Theatre patrons. The cost of these improvements is $288,521.61. The Department of Development has committed to funding these improvements for purposes of serving existing businesses and attracting new economic development activities.
