Downtown Parking Plan BNIM | Nelson/Nygaard | Trekk Design Group Overland Park, KS | May 5, 2014

What are we trying to accomplish?

Revitalize Downtown by:

Attracting new residents and

visitors

Supporting and strengthening

existing businesses

Encouraging new development

Providing an attractive, inviting

environment

Creating a higher density, mixed-

use, pedestrian friendly area

Vision Metcalf

Downtown Form-Based Code

Parking is a key challenge for these goals

Many existing spaces are

underutilized

The most popular spaces are

often full

The cost of required parking

is a hurdle for development

New dev will increase parking

demand while reducing space

Not all parking areas are as

inviting as they could be

People reluctant to walk due

to pedestrian environment

4

The farmers market public lots are the most consistently utilized off-street parking locations
