Attached is the job description and information for the downtown coordinator position open in Sherwood.  
 
It appears there are some "glitches" with setting the listserve to digest format, including not being able to send attachments. So, unless you specifically requested to receive the listserve in digest format, all other addresses have been re-set to receive in "real time." Upon individual request (please email directly - not through the listserve), I can change you to digest. Keep in mind when you reply to the listserve, it goes to everyone unless you specifically check the box to reply privately.

Erik,

 

La Grande has 2-hour everywhere. However, I know from my years working in
Grants Pass that they have 3-hour parking. It was once  2-hour on-street and
3-hour off-street, but changed to all 3-hour while I was there. I was
skeptical at first, but it actually worked out well. We'd like to consider
changing to 3-hour parking here, too, but need to spend several thousand
dollars on new parking signs.

Here's what's happened in Astoria:

Most parking in Astoria is 2 hour, this is street parking.  We also have a
"lot" in downtown that was being resurfaced and re-marked and the ADHDA
lobbied the City Council to extend the hours to 3 hour for half of the lot
and free (unlimited) parking on other half.  The reasoning was that visitors
might want to do shopping and dining in same visit and 2 hours might not be
enough time to enjoy both.  We suggested that half of the lot should be free
for employees of downtown.  The City Council agreed with our suggestions.
However, in the wintery seasons, the 3 hour spaces are often vacant and
citizens are upset that they cannot park there.  There is a proposal that
has yet to be presented to City Council and the Police Dept. to have a
lottery for these spaces in the winter months when we do not have so many
visitors., thus generating some income for the city for the lot and making
the citizens a little happy.
 
One of the challenges to having two different time restrictions for parking
I have noticed is that unless highly differentiated the visitors will be
confused. And citizens will be confused.  Clearly marked lots and areas are
crucial to less confusion for all.

Erik, 

 

La Grande currently has two hours parking limits throughout the downtown
area.  About a year ago, we explored changing to three hours.  While this
seems to be the more desirable time allotment for a lot of the community, in
the end, the  cost of replacing all of the signs was just too much for our
town to support.

Downtown Salem has had 2 hour limit for quite some time. Our parking studies
for the last four years indicate it is working efficiently. We also have two
free parking garages which are underutilized. We have some longer term 10
hour spots closer to the Courthouse and metered in a limited area. Our
average stay has been consistent in the last four years with just around 1
hour and 45 minutes. Businesses do not encourage their customers to use the
parking structures especially for the hair salons, the personal services

Erik, 

 

La Grande currently has two hours parking limits throughout the downtown
area.  About a year ago, we explored changing to three hours.  While this
seems to be the more desirable time allotment for a lot of the community, in
the end, the  cost of replacing all of the signs was just too much for our
town to support.

The City of Klamath Falls is considering increasing the time limit of
parking in its public parking lots from 2 hours to 3 hours.   Currently both
the parking lots and streets have a 2 hour limit.  Does anyone have a 3 hour
limit for parking in their Downtown?  Does anyone have 2 different time
limits for parking lot and street?  What other time limits do other Downtown
have?

 

Thanks for your help.

Downtown Albany Has lots of different limits dependent upon what the business is that fronts the space.

 *
Most of the street parking that is directly in front of a business is 3 hour
(a few are 30 minute and a couple are 10 minute).
 *
We have all day customer employee permit spaces that are on street but not in front of a business
(i.e. around a surface lot or on the side of a building).
 *
We have (3) 4 hour customer lots.
 *
(1) all day customer only lot.
 *
(1) all day employee free lot.
 *
And (3) Resident/Employee lease lots.

Clearly worded and well placed signage is a must.



Business owners can apply to have the timing of the space directly in front of their business changed.

But it has to be one of the on street limits (i.e.. all day, 3 hour 30 minute or 10 minute).

Downtown Salem has had 2 hour limit for quite some time. Our parking studies for the last four years indicate it is working efficiently. We also have two free parking garages which are underutilized. We have some longer term 10 hour spots closer to the Courthouse and metered in a limited area. Our average stay has been consistent in the last four years with just around 1 hour and 45 minutes. Businesses do not encourage their customers to use the parking structures especially for the hair salons, the personal services businesses seem to need extended stay.

Based on our parking studies and books I've read from Shoup and others,
differentiating between your resources is a must. I use the metaphor of on
street spaces being like a busy restaurant-the more turnover you have of
space the more customers you can serve. So limits on the most convenient
spaces-on street in front of businesses-should be the shortest.

 

We have 2 hours free on street, 3 hours in our garage and $1/hour (after
first two free) in one surface lot and $5 all day in our garage.

 

Much of the complaint we've had is that the policy has been driven to stop
employee/owner abuse with the customer being penalized. I really like
Albany's employee lot, however, our city has created something similar a
$15/month permit lot and sales have been horrible. I think it comes down to
people not valuing the parking and therefore not willing to pay.

 

The majority of folks feel that it'd be best to just go to metering on
street, but the ones that are gaming the system and don't want to pay
anything (virtually all employees, not customers) have been vociferously
opposed so as not to lose their free parking.

 

Bend is 4 times the population of K Falls, so the market rates might be
different, however, as I have studied it, you are on the right track. Lots
should accommodate longer stays.

Greetings,
We are in the process of asking for additional financial support from our city (Baker City). Our revenue stream comes primarily from EID/BEID collected by Baker City. 6.5% is withheld for administration. For starters we are asking for the 6.5%. To help build our case, I'd like information from other towns/cities about financial and in-kind support your Main Street program receives.

Medford is lowering time limit to one hour from 2-3 hour and installing
several pay and park stations in lots.  They've been losing money and need
to make it revenue neutral.

Hi Ann

Bandon receives no assistance currently, as our City faces major financial
issues.

We do have Urban Renewal projects that have been proposed, but not yet

The Tillamook Urban Renewal Agency is looking for input on design software
programs for visual presentations to business and building owners in our
downtown area.  If your city uses a design program could you please let me
know which program you use and what kinds of designs you have done using the

We are currently looking at assisting downtown businesses with fa?ade design
and also looking at developing a streetscape test block and need a program
to help us with visuals.

 

Any help you might be able to give us would be appreciated.  Thank you.

Debbi, Thanks for your foresight in applying to them for information on the design software. 
I had wondered if it would help to see if they had any information on just how Albany for instance, got their act together on how to form a plan to proceed with their urban renewal, what problems they dealt with, how they proceeded to get the business/property owners to agree to be on the same page. And how long this process has been going on. I don't remember if it was an Urban Renewal dist. or the Oregon Mainstreet or if they worked together. We  had so much information thrown at us it was hard to pick out the most important points.
I guess I am still confused, doesn't 'streetscapes' include the facades/awnings as well as the sidewalks??

I have been using Google sketch up.  It works pretty well, and it's really easy to learn.  I only been using the free versions.  I am not sure what the pro versions offers over and above the free version.

Albany here. Alene, I assume you are talking about our recent Broadalbin promenade project.

The conceptual work was done about 16 years ago. There was a lot of public comment, and input from business and building owners, all brought together by Urban Designer George Crandall. Once that was done the Urban renewal agency was created in order to provide funding for the concept. The final construction plans were designed by the city engineers in the Public Works Department. The presentation of the idea, relied mostly on photos of similar projects in other town across the country. These were provided mostly by the Urban design firm Crandall & Arambula.

Our First Avenue Streetscape design was done in house by the city engineers in the Public Works Department. I would assume they have the same kind of CAD programs that your own public works department has. Again the presentation relied mostly on photos of the various street furnishings out of the suppliers catalogs.

Taking a photo of the project area and adding features with photoshop or indesign works well for presenting initial concepts.

Subject: Help for Main Street Projects 

I thought I would send a quick note to other Main Street managers to let everyone know of a resource that Main Street has been using in Coos and Curry counties.  We looked into purchasing software to help with fa?ade improvement but to do an effective job, it was very expensive and required a considerable amount of expertise. 

We have been working with EdobaVirtual (www.edobavirtual.com/mainstreet/) to have design concepts created for the projects that we envision and compellingly show community stakeholders the benefits of our target projects. 

EdobaVirtual has developed a very cost-effective means to realistically picture a Main Street project in situ and we are finding it very helpful for our efforts. 

It's one thing to talk about the impact that a facade change, for example, can make to a beautiful old building in your downtown. But if you're able to show it, to accurately visualize the dramatic improvement, that can make all the difference in trying to drive consensus and create support in the community. 

We have found that using the design concepts has been a key factor in moving our organization forward. Our property owners have become enthusiastic and started exploring options. City and civic organizations have joined the effort to develop funding. Local contractors can see what a dynamic billboard a high-visibility project can be for them and are willing to discuss reduced rates. 

5% goes to Main Street 

And now, EdobaVirtual has graciously chosen to support Main Street efforts by donating 5% of their fees back to the appropriate 501(c)(3) Main Street organization through whom the project originated. 

To find out more about this remarkable new technology and see examples, please visit their site. I hope you find it as helpful as we have.

Message-ID: <4D80A969.875A.0097.0@PRD.STATE.OR.US>

Hello,
 
We are very excited about our spring Oregon Main Street Network
Workshop (see attached flyer). We have two excellent speakers lined up
to talk about economic development. The workshop will be Friday, April
22, 8 a.m. to noon, Harbortown Events Center, 325 2nd Street, Bandon,
Oregon. This is a wonderful small, coastal community that I know you
will really enjoy - in fact, they were listed as one of 2010 Budget
Travel?s List of America?s Top 10 Coolest Small Towns. Thank you to our
hosts, Greater Bandon by the Sea Association. The workshop is free to
participants from Oregon Main Street communities. Additonal information
on the workshop and hotel information is below. To register, please go
to:
 
http://www.eventbrite.com/event/1449105313 (
http://www.eventbrite.com/event/1175647393 )
 
 
Workshop Information:

The first session is "Creating a Culture of Entrepreneurship" by Maury
Forman, Senior Manager for Rural Initiatives with the Washington State
Department of Commerce's Innovations and Policy Division.
Entrepreneurship is considered to be the single biggest driver of job
creation in both rural and urban communities, encouraging innovative
capabilities of small enterprises and offering an economic
diversification strategy.  Communities that understand  the role of
economic development will have a better chance of success in growing
their business ventures and creating an entrepreneurial environment .
This session will show how to recognize economic development that will 
support entrepreneurs and small businesses. 
 
The second session, "It Takes A Village to Create a Successful Economic
Structure in Our Downtown," is with Dennie Houle, Business Development
Officer for Business Oregon. Downtowns are fertile grounds for growing
jobs with much of the infrastructure already in place to support job
creating businesses.  there are many economic development groups,
agencies, and organizations that have wealth creation as a main mission.
 So why is it so hard to bring in these partners when Main Street
programs state to work on business development or economic restructuring
projects? Bring your success and failure stories as we delve into the
economic development world and examine tools of the trade. This will be
interactive and will be based on the premise that we are the village and
the techniques and solutions to keeping our downtowns thriving are
already in the room!
 
Hotel Suggestions:
 
Bandon Inn

355 Highway 101
Bandon 97411
541-347-4417
 
Inn at Face Rock Resort (Best Western)
3225 Beach Loop Drive
Bandon 97411
541-347-9441
 
The first site is much closer to Old Town, overlooking Old Town with a
view of the Boat Basin. The second is a bit more economical as a Best
Western might be expected to be, is about 2-3 miles away from Old Town
but has access to the Beach and has a 9 hole golf course next door.

Hi Sheri,

We're plugging along down here in Medford trying to shake things up.  We are
certainly planning on having a representative attend this Workshop.  Budget
seems to always be a challenge - is there any scholarship money available
for this as there was last year for the Gresham workshop that John and I
attended?

Thanks,
rjb

Hi Sheri

Great invitation, thanks!

Did you include Julie Miller of the Bandon Chamber of Commerce in your
invitation, or Matt Winkle, City Manager?
Are we able to extend invitations to others from this area we think should
attend?

Hope all is well,

Hi Sheri,

I will be out of town for this networking meeting and workshop.
Tom Gardner from our group will attend the Friday morning sessions and I've
forwarded the eventbrite link to him to register.
I'm sorry to be missing this!!

I'll be on Maui, sharing our daughter's birthday with her on the 21st!  :)


Thanks,

Kelly

Can anyone send me their membership structure? I'm looking for
comparable membership or "Friends of Downtown" levels especially package
type rates for Chamber/Downtown membership together.

 

Thanks!

La Grande Main Street has three levels of membership 

 

1.      Basic Membership: $75

2.      Patron: $250

3.      Sponsor: $500

 

Basic membership dollars are unrestricted and can be used however the
organization deems fit.  Patron and Sponsor levels have the opportunity to
designate which current project they would like their dollars spent on.  If
they do not make a determination then the Board is given the authority to
allocate their dollars. 

 

We do not yet have an official ask for major gifts, but we do feel that this
is the next step in our membership outreach.

We are just about to kick-off our membership program in Astoria. Basic
membership will be $100 (chamber is $150 and we felt we had to be under that
level given the relative differences in organizational scope and resources).
"Sponsoring Memberships" will be offered at higher levels of $250, $500 and
$1000. 

For a 60-day period, the chamber and downtown association will extend a $25
discount to new members who are already members of the other organization.
If someone becomes a new member of both organizations simultaneously, they
will get a $50 discount.
