SUBJECT: DOWNTOWN DOWNEY PARKING STUDY
DISCUSSION
As part of the on-going efforts to ensure the growth in Downtown Downey is managed and not
creating an impact, the City of Downey enlisted the help of Dixon Resources Unlimited to
conduct a parking study of the downtown. Data was collected for parking occupancy and
vehicle turn-over rates multiple times a day on a Tuesday and a Saturday in September 2018.
The result of the displays show that the existing parking demand in downtown is well within the
industry standards.
Staff is attaching the parking study for the Planning Commission’s information. Additionally,
Dixon Resources Unlimited will provide the Planning Commission a presentation of the study
and its’ results.
