Executive Brief

Campaign Overview

01The Problem

Policy updates require clear public education. Residents need simple, consistent guidance before enforcement becomes the first point of contact.

02The Approach

The rollout uses email, social media, print, video, and the website to provide plain-language information at each stage of the process.

03The Outcome

Residents understand the policy, know whether they are in a designated neighborhood, and have a clear next step: confirm status, apply for a decal, or begin the petition process.

What changed

The updated approach moves from a broad citywide restriction to a targeted framework residents can understand and act on.

Before
Blanket overnight parking restriction applied citywide
No clear pathway for neighborhoods to change status
No short-term relief program for temporary overnight needs
Now
Parking generally allowed throughout the city
Restrictions apply only in designated neighborhoods, 12 AM – 6 AM
55% petition allows neighborhoods to request a status change
City Commission can adjust enforcement areas
Temporary Parking Decal provides limited short-term relief
