11.1 Is parking available at the co-op? If so, how much?
Yes, limited parking is available on the co-op grounds for members. A total of 24 spaces exist in front and behind the house buildings. Note, however, that the number of members with vehicles typically exceeds the number of available spaces, so usually not everyone can be assigned a parking space.
11.2 How is parking assigned?
Parking is assigned on the basis of seniority at the house. Among members with equal seniority, the spaces are assigned by lottery. Parking permits are given at nominal cost.
11.3 If I'm not assigned a parking place, where can I park?
Members without assigned parking may park on the street in front of
the co-op or on nearby streets. Note that members without assigned
parking spaces may not park in co-op spaces even if they are
empty because the parking lots are patrolled by a towing company which
automatically tows vehicles without permits. Generally members are
able to find spaces without too much difficulty but parking can be
problematic especially during high-demand periods (e.g., lunch time,
sometimes late at night, etc.)
