Members Absent: None
Summary: At a regular meeting of the Salem Redevelopment Authority (SRA), members
considered the details of the City's proposal to improve, resurface, and restripe the existing
parking lot known as the `Salem Green Lot' at 21 Church Street.
In addition to a resurfacing and striping, this project will include the removal of parking meters in
favor of a parking payment kiosk, installation of an EV charger to facilitate charging in two
spaces, relocation of the existing dumpsters and the addition of appropriate screening, and
improvement in lot signage.
There will also be new license agreements between the SRA, the Salem Five Bank, and the
private businesses that use the lot for their dumpster storage. These agreements will be
presented to the SRA at a future meeting.
SRA members expressed their unanimous support this of project. They believe that the
improvements will create consistency among the city's parking system and result in a more
attractive parking area.
