City Council will take its final vote this Thursday (tomorrow) on the proposed Residential Parking Permit Program ordinance.

The proposal would create a new Neighborhood Resident Only Parking Area (NROPA) program, adding another tool to the neighborhood toolbox for areas experiencing significant overflow parking from nearby businesses, employment centers, events, or other destinations.

This proposal does not automatically create any parking districts. Instead, it establishes a process that neighborhoods could choose to pursue if they meet specific petition and parking study requirements.

Because this proposal could affect neighborhoods across St. Petersburg in different ways, we encourage residents and neighborhood leaders to learn more, review the details, and make their voices heard before the final vote.

We've put together a summary of the ordinance, key details, and important considerations for neighborhoods along with a button to email city council if you're unable to make it here:

MASTER PLAN UPDATE
The Master Plan has officially been published, marking an exciting transition from planning to implementation. As we enter this next phase, we're pleased to introduce a key addition to the team: Gia Ferrulo, who has joined the Innovation District as an implementation consultant specializing in outreach and project management for mobility efforts.

The Master Plan implementation team now includes Alison Barlow, Nisuka Williams, Jack Feldman, and Gia Ferrulo. Successful implementation depends on strong partnerships, and this team will work closely with stakeholders across the district—from neighborhood associations and community organizations to the City of St. Petersburg and local developers. Together, they will bring people together to help steer the future of the Innovation District.
