any parking that is taken away by the installation of the streetcar should be replaced. Brookside and Waldo both don't have enough parking today. Although it would seem that you would need less parking spots with the addition of a streetcar, both of these areas will still need ample parking for commuters and neighborhood residents. Another idea for Waldo is to use some of the Bingham School lot at 76th & Wyandotte (to the direct east of the Trolley Track Trail today) for parking. Idea Author: Melissa M Number of Seconds 0 Number of Points 3 Number of Comments 2 Comment 1: if you follow the planning, the budget includes money to replace every parking spot | By Kevin C Comment 2: The parking lots you refer to in Brookside and Waldo are within the Right-Of-Way of the KCATA owend Trolley Track Trail. Meaning, they own the parking which in all fairness we have no claim to. Infact, where the KCATA has leased out parking for private use there is a contingency that the leaser will vacate property in the event that the ROW is repurposed for fixed rail. However, the planning consultants (BNIM and HDR) have made it clear that they would like to not disrupt parking in those areas. | By Idris R

phase II Expansion plan
Idea Detail: In my neighborhood bordering on 31st Main - Gillham due to the relatively narrow street width it would probably be better to have the tracks in the center of 31st allowing for some on street parking during non rush hours, particularly in the Martini Corner district near Gillham.
