- 0:22Speaker 1: the reserve of Hudson Crossing luxury apartment complex will provide
- 0:26Speaker 1: more parking in downtown Oswego. At the July fourteenth Oswego
- 0:31Speaker 1: Village Board meeting, village trustees approved designating the new parking
- 0:35Speaker 1: garage at twenty seven South Adams Street as a public
- 0:39Speaker 1: parking facility, allowing specific downtown residents to use the facility
- 0:43Speaker 1: for overnight parking. In addition, the village can provide overnight
- 0:47Speaker 1: parking permits. Currently, the village provides one hundred and eighty
- 0:52Speaker 1: five permits. Oswego Development Services Director Rod Zenner said under
- 0:57Speaker 1: this ordinance, the number of permits can increase to up
- 1:00Speaker 1: to three hundred permits. In April, village officials celebrated the
- 1:04Speaker 1: opening of the reserve at Hudson Crossings North, which features
- 1:08Speaker 1: one hundred and four studio, one and two bedroom apartments.
- 1:12Speaker 1: The first building, which has one seventy six apartments, opened
- 1:15Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one. The second building also has one
- 1:19Speaker 1: hundred and twenty five garage parking spaces, adding to the
- 1:23Speaker 1: three hundred and thirty nine garage parking spaces in the
- 1:26Speaker 1: first building. In twenty twenty one, the village approved an
- 1:31Speaker 1: ordinance allowing overnight parking in the parking garage in the
- 1:34Speaker 1: first Hudson Crossing building, subject to compliance with the village's
- 1:38Speaker 1: overnight parking and permit process. Zenner noted that when the
- 1:42Speaker 1: overnight parking program was originally created, only residents who resided
- 1:47Speaker 1: in the blocks between Harrison Street and Main Street and
- 1:50Speaker 1: Jefferson to Washington were allowed to participate. Since that time,
- 1:55Speaker 1: zo residents on the east side of Main Street requested
- 1:58Speaker 1: to be allowed to purchase overnight parking permits, stating that
- 2:01Speaker 1: they have difficulty finding off street parking spaces. He said
- 2:05Speaker 1: the village allowed residents in that area to participate as
- 2:08Speaker 1: part of a pilot program. The new ordinance that village
- 2:12Speaker 1: trustees approved now includes these properties on both sides of
- 2:15Speaker 1: Main Street. At the meeting, village trustees also approved increasing
- 2:21Speaker 1: parking fees That includes increasing the permit fee for one
- 2:24Speaker 1: vehicle from fifty dollars to sixty dollars a month. This
- 2:28Speaker 1: is the first increase since twenty twenty one.
