Jenkintown hosting 2nd community meeting to discuss permit parking

Jenkintown Borough will be holding a second community meeting to discuss parking management and regulations on Thursday, November 7 at 7:00pm. 

According to a memo, the meeting will focus on permit parking and the associated regulations.

From the memo:

All interested residents, property owners and business owners are encouraged to attend and participate in the discussions on this important subject. This planning effort to improve parking management will create a long term profound contributing factor in the success of the business district and the quality of life, and structure of our community. 

The analysis of information and ideas provided by the participants of the first community meeting brought forward several constructive and creative ideas that have been incorporated into the proposed revisions to Borough Code, Chapter 172 Vehicles and Traffic, Articles lll through Vl.

This is an excellent opportunity to further the effort to modernize and structure the parking ordinance to reflect the current and future parking needs of the Borough while clearly defining the standards and regulations to be enforced.

A status update on the planned improvements to the means and methods of parking payment will be provided.

As are all Borough Public meetings this meeting will have a ZOOM link that can be requested by emailing the Borough Manager at Glocke@jenkintownboro.com should you be unable to attend in person. The meetings can also be watched over Live Feed on the Borough Facebook page.
