According to the Eagle, DOT is getting ready to add a lot more parking spaces around (but not on) Kent Avenue. In particular, some of the side streets and a lot of Wythe Avenue will pick up parking (much of Wythe from Grand to South 3rd is no parking, unnecessarily so).

The west side of Kent between South 8th and Division (in front of Schaefer and the girl’s school) will get “No Standing”, which will allow residents and parents to stop and make pick ups/drop offs. That should satisfy the Schaefer opposition.

Seriously, though, DOT should consider “No Standing” regulations on the east side of Kent to give businesses a break.
