Hood River City Councilors have asked municipal staff to provide more information before they make a decision on a request from Key Development to lower the City’s in-lieu of fee for residential parking in the Central Business District to allow the developer to move forward with a proposed mixed use development on State Street that would include 71 market rate apartments along with commercial space.  City Manager Steve Wheeler says the Council wants to research downtown parking issues that have been discussed for years to help determine a course of action.  Wheeler says the issue will be discussed again at their next meeting on September 11.  Key Development’s proposal is in a pre-application review phase, and a formal land use application has not been received.
