One of the most serious problems confronting North Tarrytown at present is off-street parking. The central area of the Village is a comgined residential and business district, which complicates the problem* There are inadequate parking facilities to serve the business district. In addition, the majority of homes in the area do not have sufficient garages to take care of the residents' automobiles. The Planning Board has concluded that the Village must acquire property in the immediate area for parking sites to at least partially solve the problem. We recommend that approximately five (5) parcels of land on the west side of North Washington Street, adjacent to the school playground, be acquired, A parking area of approximately 24,000 square feet would thus be made available. At a proven ratio of approximately 300 square feet per parking space, this area would accommodate approximately SO automobiles. After the land has been acquired, it is suggested the Board of Education be contacted with regard to exchanging their present playground area on Beekman Avenue for the five (5) parcels on North Washington Street. In our opinion such an exchange would be mutually advantageous. A second parking area is recommended opposite the Municipal Building. This would encompass the land parcel known �- 2 - as 21 Beekman Avenue. Total area available would be approximate- ly 15,000 square feet and would accommodate approximately 50 automobiles. Both parking areas should be metered to properly accommodate the daily business traffic flow. In the evening it is recommended the space be utilized by village residents for over-night parking. A nominal fee should be assessed as it is our belief these parking areas must be self-sustaining. The Planning Board would like to jointly explore the proposal further with the Village Board of Trustees, with a view towrd holding a public hearing in the near future.
