SCASD anticipates that parking will be unwieldy for pool operations. If we work together, we can do better.

CRRA-SCASD Parking Agreement – proposed change Recital 3, page 5
“Depending upon the requirements of the construction project, such parking may be, during the course of construction, on the north side of Westerly Parkway, satisfactory to School and Authority. In addition, School will replace the New Parking Facilities only if they are impacted by School or its successor's modifications to the area. All of the one hundred six (106) parking spaces must be located within a four hundred (400) foot radius of the pool entrance gate, as the same is depicted on Exhibit "C", and only on the south side of Westerly Parkway.”
Proposed change preserves original intent of the agreement • Sufficiency (106 spaces) • Utility (better access) • Proximity (400 ft radius)
SCASD requests that the CRPRA Board take action on this proposed change at its November meeting.
Future actions SCASD will request a MOU to document compliance with shared parking agreement as part of its 60% design review (January 2015) • Assure that interim parking is, “satisfactory to School and Authority.” • Document permanent parking plan
