TITLE
Recommendation to direct City Manager to engage Long Beach Unified School District (LBUSD) in negotiations for permitted residential use of school parking lots to enable overnight parking. Emphasis should be placed on schools located in parking impacted communities.
DISCUSSION
The "Coordinated Municipal and Schools Recreation Program" is an agreement between the City of Long Beach and Long Beach Unified School District, enabling joint-use of parks, school playgrounds and other facilities in support of children and neighborhoods. In light of the severe parking shortage in the Second District, school parking lots could provide much needed overnight parking relief to residents in impacted communities. Negotiations between LBUSD and Parks and Recreation concerning joint-use of facilities are already occurring in anticipation of the agreement's term on December 31,2006. Therefore, it is appropriate to engage LBUSD on the subject of using school parking lots for permitted residential use.
