The current Unlawful Parking Ordinance 9-4-20 allows for downtown residents to obtain an unlimited parking permit for designated City owned parking lots. Downtown is currently defined in City Ordinance 9-5-2 as the area within the City of Idaho Falls, Idaho, located east of and including Memorial Drive, south of and including "G" Street, west of Yellowstone Avenue, and north of Broadway Avenue. Within the last few years residents have sought a downtown parking permit for newly built residential properties on the south side of Broadway Ave. By ordinance these permits cannot be approved. Therefore it is recommended to redefine the downtown area for this section only to allow unlimited parking permits in designated City owned parking lots to include those residents north of Cliff Street, and east of Capital Avenue leaving all other boundaries as previously defined.
