They are discussing the parking and will be giving the city their suggested restrictions for the permit parking petition and study. They are overriding the residents suggested restrictions that were already submitted and trying to add an area that is not congested with WL overflow parking. This will most likely cause the area to fall short of the requirements needed to support a permit parking area. They have not shared the hours they want to suggest for restrictions yet. Hopefully the residents will have a chance to voice their concerns and suggestions at this public forum. </p> <p><center><strong>Fifth by Northwest Area Commission Meeting<br /> Tuesday, May 7th at 7pm<br /> Holy Trinity Lutheran Church<br /> 2001 Northwest Blvd, Columbus, OH 43212<br /> </strong></center></p> <p>Interestingly, the preamble to their by-laws states that they will <blockquote>"study problems and needs of the area, recommend solutions and bring these needs to the attention of proper government agencies; determine the need for, and recommend legislation affecting the area; provide communication within the area and between the area and city government; solicit cooperation of all segments of the community; afford additional voluntary citizen participation in decision-making in an advisory capacity to the city administration and city council; "</blockquote></p> <p><a href="http://www.fifthbynorthwest.org/about/bylaws/"><a href="http://www.fifthbynorthwest.org/about/bylaws/" rel="nofollow">http://www.fifthbynorthwest.org/about/bylaws/</a><br /> </a></p> <p>I look forward to hearing what they have done to "study the problems and solicit cooperation of all segments". </p> http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/hoggys-shutting-down-all-but-one-location-gahanna/page/20#post-500951 Fri, 03 May 2013 17:17:46 +0000 buckette13 500951@http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/ <blockquote><p><cite>mrpoppinzs <a href="http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/hoggys-shutting-down-all-but-one-location-gahanna/page/20#post-500937">said</a>:</cite><br /> Great patio weather today, last time I was there the patio was full of chatty 20 somethings. </p></blockquote> <p>Generally it is a mixed crowd but the older folks go to bed earlier. ;) </p> http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/hoggys-shutting-down-all-but-one-location-gahanna/page/20#post-500937 Fri, 03 May 2013 15:43:50 +0000 mrpoppinzs 500937@http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/ <p>Great patio weather today, last time I was there the patio was full of chatty 20 somethings. </p> http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/hoggys-shutting-down-all-but-one-location-gahanna/page/20#post-500916 Fri, 03 May 2013 14:23:07 +0000 GCrites80s 500916@http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/ <p>Ha, especially when you don't know if you're more on the Far East Side or Near East Side... perhaps the Middle East Side? </p> http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/hoggys-shutting-down-all-but-one-location-gahanna/page/20#post-500911 Fri, 03 May 2013 13:58:07 +0000 leftovers 500911@http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/ <p>They are calling it 'Grandview' - short for Grandview area ;) - which is Columbus speak for the area consisting of both <em>Grandview Heights</em> and <em>5xNW</em>.

There is plenty of parking surrounding the WL that is not used in the evening when the WL needs additional parking. Why not workout some shared use parking agreements. Permit parking is not the answer it's just a mechanism for the city to generate revenue and is difficult to monitor.
