Compact Parking Could be Eliminated
- Share via
Squeezing a sport-utility truck into a compact parking space can be a difficult task, so the city will consider dropping requirements for small spaces as part of a major overhaul of zoning laws.
“Cars are getting bigger again, trucks are getting more popular and the compact parking stall was not a well thought out idea,” City Manager Robert Dominguez said. “What worked in the early ‘70s isn’t working in the ‘90s.”
The meeting begins at 7 p.m. in City Hall, 3191 Katella Ave. Information: (562) 431-3538 or (714) 827-8670.
![Los Angeles, CA - May 19: Carlos Vargas, left, and Paulina Rubio, members of the harm reduction team from Homeless Outreach Program Integrated Care Systems [HOPICS], a leading homeless services and housing agency, look for drug addicts to help and pass out supplies at a homeless RV encampment along 77th St. in South Los Angeles Friday, May 19, 2023. The team hands out syringes, fentanyl test strips, overdose reversal nose spray and medication to prevent overdoses, infection and disease transmission, including the HIV virus. Fenanyl is particularly insidious because it can be found in all other drugs, especially meth and heroin. The handouts are also meant to reduce infection through broken pipes, which can cut users mouths and open them to infection. . (Allen J.
