DEVELOPMENT: 18-townhouse plan at 5242 California SW returns to Southwest Design Review Board next month

The Southwest Design Review Board finally has something on its calendar: A January 24th meeting is penciled in for the second and possibly final review of an 18-townhouse project, 9 units at 5242 California SW and 9 next door at 5248 California SW. The “early design guidance” meeting for the project was in November of last year. This project would replace a fenced-off vacant strip mall; separate residential projects are planned for the two restaurant sites to its south, but they’re not part of this review. The SWDRB meeting is planned for 6:30 pm January 24 at the Senior Center/Sisson Building (4217 SW Oregon).

Please veto this unless they provide ample parking to the residents. I am frustrated by all the new townhouses going up that expect the residents to find street parking and walk multiple blocks to get to their houses. This location is also next to a RapidRide which also contributes to a parking nightmare in the area, as everyone uses the surrounding neighborhoods as a Park and Ride.
