Parking spaces are available throughout the City, but there is no Parking Management Plan to address the needs of the daytime population and specific areas of the City where there is high demand for parking. Parking management issues have been identified repeatedly as part of land use and transportation decisions made by Council over the years. To address parking management issues, on May 21, 2019, Council approved six Citywide Parking Management Objectives as a first step to guide implementation of parking management in the City. These overarching objectives help Council communicate the priorities staff should consider when developing parking management projects, and help implement the City’s Burbank2035 General Plan, specific plans, Greenhouse Gas Reduction Plan, and other policy documents. 

After adopting these objectives, on October 24, 2023, Council directed staff to develop a proposed Downtown Burbank Parking Management Plan, specifically the on-street parking spaces on San Fernando Boulevard. This timeline is in alignment with the San Fernando Boulevard Re-configuration project that was completed in March 2024. Join us in this effort on developing a Parking Management Plan for Downtown Burbank. The final version will be presented at an upcoming City Council meeting at the end of 2024.
