Program Goal

Reduce traffic congestion and double parking on and around Main Street, and improve safety and access.

Program Outline

City Council strives to increase safety, reduce congestion, and promote alternative modes of transportation while maintaining access to Main Street businesses.

The DLS program is for Ground Transportation companies, including lodging shuttles, for-hire taxis, and TNCs. The program is intended to be year-round, and we continue to evaluate seasonally. The program may be suspended for events and other unforeseen circumstances.

DLS Permit Areas

All For-Hire/Ground Transportation vehicles wishing to drop off and pick up on Main Street between the hours of 5:00 p.m.-12:00 a.m., must have a paid DLS permit. Zones are identified with paint and signage on the east and west sides of the street.

Before 5:00 p.m., zones are available for 15-minute parking for all users, no permit required. From 5:00 p.m.-12:00 a.m., the zones will be drop and load only unless otherwise marked.
