Ameya Pawar (47th) said he has made it a standard requirement of transit-oriented developments in his ward, including a pair of proposals on the table for Lawrence Avenue.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Of the two transit-oriented developments that have come through Ald. Tom Tunney&#8217;s 44th Ward office \u2014 one on Southport and one on Belmont \u2014 similar restrictions are likely.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Though no formal policy is in place and the process is still developing, &#8220;the consensus is to deny permanent zone permits,&#8221; said Chris Jessup, 44th Ward director of public safety and community affairs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Parking is at a premium in Lakeview, he said, and transit-oriented developments are supposed to be targeting a different market.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Limits on guest passes, or outright denial, are also being negotiated. &#8220;Some of that is still being worked out,&#8221; Jessup said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The onus is on the developer or building&#8217;s management company to convey the parking permit information to tenants.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The owner of the transit-oriented development at 1611 W. Division St. has done a good job of informing potential renters up front that if they have a car, they won&#8217;t receive exception letters allowing them to park on adjacent residential permit parking streets, according to Raymond Valadez, chief of staff for Ald. Joe Moreno (1st).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The handful of requests received by the office from the property&#8217;s tenants have been denied, he said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;I believe this has discouraged those with cars to rent in a TOD building with no available parking,&#8221; Valadez said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;As a result, we have not had any complaints from neighbors indicating that they cannot park on their street due to the influx of residents of the 1611 West Division building,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Planning to rent in a transit-oriented development?
