Code of the District of Columbia

Chapter 25B. Ward 1 Residential Parking.

§ 50–2551. Ward 1 Enhanced Residential Parking Program.

(a) There is established a Ward 1 Enhanced Residential Parking Program (“Program”). Any Ward 1 Advisory Neighborhood Commission (“ANC”) may, by resolution of that ANC, vote to include blocks within the ANC in the Program. The Program will consist of the following requirements:

(1) Any block that participates in the residential permit parking in Ward 1 shall have at least 50% of the legal residential parking spaces on that block designated as Zone 1 Permitted Parking Only;

(2) A visitor parking pass program shall be available to residents; and

(3) Any resident owning a vehicle registered at an address on a Ward 1 residential block may be granted a Zone 1 residential parking sticker, in accordance with the process developed by the Mayor pursuant to § 50-2552.

(b) Blocks within a streetscape construction project impact zone, as designated by the Mayor, shall be excluded from the Program until the Mayor declares that all major construction associated with the streetscape has been completed.

(c) The Program shall not apply within one block of a ward boundary. Streets within one block of a ward boundary shall instead be designated so that vehicles displaying a valid residential permit for either adjacent ward may park on any such block that was a residential permit parking street before the institution of the Program.

§ 50–2552. Rules.

(a) Within 90 days of October 26, 2010, the Mayor, pursuant to subchapter I of Chapter 5 of Title 2 [§ 2-501 et seq.], shall issue rules to implement the provisions of this chapter. The proposed rules shall be submitted to the Council for a 30-day period of review, excluding Saturdays, Sundays, legal holidays, and days of Council recess. If the Council does not approve or disapprove the rules, in whole or in part, by resolution, within this 30-day review period, the proposed rules shall be deemed disapproved.

(b) The rules submitted to the Council shall address the following:

(1) The application of the requirements of § 50-2551 to streets that are on the boundary of Ward 1;

(2) The application of the requirements of § 50-2551 to streets that are on the boundary of an ANC;

(3) The definition of streetscape construction project impact zones as referenced in § 50-2551(b);
