January 13, 1965, regarding two-hour parking in front of the Petroleum Building at 210-212 West Magnolia in Fort Collins. The owners of the Building would appreciate installation of a two-hour parking sign near the west boundary of their property, which borders the alley, and another two-hour parking sign on the east boundary of their property. There is now located in the building a C.P.A office, a life insurance agent's office, a loan broker's office, and a doctor's office. Parking congestion in the neighborhood has increased in recent years and, of course, will continue to increase as the business area moves in that direction. The increase, undoubtedly, will become more pronounced when the Poudre Valley National Bank moves to their new location which is approximately one-half block east of the Petroleum Building. There is some parking available at t he rear of the building for employees, and a few clients, however, the owners feel it is necessary to have two-hour parking in front of the build,ibg so that their patients and clients can reach them conveniently, and so that people not connected with the builiing will not be parking there for a greater period of time then two hours. .Ianuary ?1 l` 5_ Thank you -for your cooperation.
