After two years of discussion and debate, Muni's Northwest Bernal Residential Parking Permit (RPP) proposal is moving into the final stages of the approval process.
On July 7 at 10am in Room 416 at City Hall, the SFMTA will hold a public hearing to review the proposal to establish a new RPP zone in northwest Bernal Heights.
The map below outlines the proposed permit area, where Bernal residents who live outside the blue RPP zones would be restricted to two-hour parking on weekdays between 8am and 6pm.
The SFMTA meeting announcement says:
Residents of northwest Bernal Heights have petitioned the SFMTA to form a new residential parking permit area to better manage and find parking closer to their homes.
In May 2017, a majority of residents on the following blocks voted to move forward with residential permit parking Coleridge (1 – 99), Coso (1 – 199), Esmeralda (200-299), Fair (1-99), Lundy’s Lane (1-29), Mirabel, Montezuma, Powers, Precita (1 – 299), Prospect (100-199), Shotwell (1400 – 1499), and Winfield (1 – 99).
The proposal to create a RPP area on these blocks will be heard at a SFMTA Engineering Public Hearing at 10 a.m. on Friday, July 7 at City Hall, Room 416. Interested parties are invited to attend and comment on the proposal.
A summary of the community vote and overall project history can be found on the project website and May project update.
