- PBOT Lloyd Event Parking District Presentation – Kathryn Doherty-Chapman
- During games/concerts/big conventions – how can we encourage people not to park on the streets?
- Lloyd focused but touches Eliot.
- Once PBOT goes before City Council on this, they will seek to start the rate increase during events at $3/hr.
- This rate will theoretically increase yearly as part of PBOT’s budget assuming capacity is being met.
- PBOT is continuing to focus on the parking study in Northeast/Boise/Eliot over the coming years.
- Equity: Transportation Wallet for Lloyd District residents.
- Summary:
- Rate increase during games and events in the evening/some day time event
- Annual rate changes based on data
- LUTC agreeing to write a letter of support of the Lloyd Event Parking District Plan as long as it dovetails into productive results in the future with the North Portland Parking Management Plan. Eliot doesn’t want to get stuck with vehicles moving north to avoid the meters and no other benefit to the Eliot Neighborhood.

- Allan
- Phil
- Mike
Minutes
- Allan shared his proposal for the Fremont Bridge Reclamation. The committee was supportive of the idea and Mike is going to help shop the idea around.
- Brad to post meeting link on website and post to social meeting to try to attract new members.
- Brad to draft high level document about LUTC’s views on infill and variances and discuss next meeting.
- Discussed reaching out to our federal legislators about financing infill like RIP. Current shortcoming with bank regulations is that when someone goes to buy a property with an ADUs (or 2-4-plex), they either have to prove the ADU is income generating or just put up a lot more money which most probably don’t have. If banks allowed ADUs to be sold separately or to sell apartments, we might see more ADUs, duplexes, triplexes, and quads being built.

2306 n Vancouver
Zoning: CM3d – plan to use community design standards. may submit before end of the calendar year.
Proposal: 43 units. 1 loading zone. Mostly studios and 1br. 3 2br
Concerns: Neighborhood feel, street appeal important. Main entrance not gloomy. We would like more larger units less studios. Also want the building to address the street better. If they get below 40 units they can get rid of the loading zone
Ali from Emanuel (7:40pm)
Emanuel IMP ends 2023, but rules aren’t changing much
New building still going up. Planning on 16 OR. Quicker turnaround.
Core and shell of the building are very flexible. This will allow them to build spaces in the new building and then when finished move units over from older spaces. One highlight is a modernized burn center
Evergreen topic: Land between Vancouver & Williams. Ali & Emanuel want to rezone land they hold and change the development rules on their campus (which we support) but can’t due to city or something. Setbacks are holding everything back. Allan proposed getting some meetings with the city to get things going forward. Ali said he would attend if the right meeting can get set up.
Monique asked about air quality concerns with I-5. Hospital doesn’t care about air quality, they filter everything a ton already
Parking summary: car dealership wants to build a big building. Neighborhood not excited about it. Will continue letter-writing and staying on top of things.
Safer 7th: need to reach out to Nick Falbo and see what is going on and when we can start construction
Another devleopment proposal- we want them to come in for a future meeting – N Flint and Hancock.
6-0 passed: Motion to approve minutes

Steve gemmel (EarthquakeTech)
7:05pm: EarthquakeTech street vacation.
