Dear Resident,
The City of Kent, in coordination with Kent Police Department, has evaluated parking on SE 261 Pl (east and west side of 129 Ave SE) and found that parking restrictions are needed on both sides. Kent City Code 13.01 requires a fire access route with a minimum unobstructed street width of 20 feet for emergency vehicles.
Since SE 261 Pl is 22 feet wide, there is not enough width for on-street parking. Restricting parking in Kent requires a change to the City Code. We anticipate making the proposal to City Council in December.
We realize these proposed restrictions will create an additional burden on neighborhood parking, so we want to hear your feedback on this important issue. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to contact me at 253-856-5571, email at RBrown@KentWA.gov, or fill out the quick three-question survey below.
Sincerely, Rob Brown, P.E. Transportation Engineering Manager
