The new draft General Plan elements would reduce maximum parking requirements in the most walkable parts of the city and eliminate parking minimums entirely where possible, alongside investing in alternative modes of transportation, such as the bus system and bicycle infrastructure.
The General Plan, which will govern the next few decades of Arcata’s infrastructural policies – in many ways it determines what the city physically is – will now be discussed by the Arcata City Council, which will include several aspects they have yet to decide, such as inclusionary zoning and parking standards.
