The site, a 600 foot stretc along Coyote St! adjacent to The Pioneer and Ott's Assay Office, would havea parking capacity of 35 cars. Hart told the council that the Division of Highways had planned extensive landscaping in that strip, but that if the city desired to use it for parking, the state: freeway construction contract could call for levelling of the property and fill of one area which would become an exit site from the lot onto Coyote St. The deputy state highway engineer, with Paul Sheridan of the Marysville office of the division, told the council the state could not build the lot for the city but that basic grading and filling could be a part of freeway construction. Other parking sites possible on freeway right of way property include: An estimated 17 spaces IF the state purchases the entire Shell Oil station site at Nevada and Main Sts. This site would be across the freeway from the cen~ * tral dow ntown area and would serve The Plaza area. Somewhere up to eight spaces on the stub of Main St. which will extend toward the freeway from Union St. The number of parking spaces will be limited by the ex~ tensiveness of landscaping deemed advisable to enhance the attractiveness of Ott's Assay Office and the “Hot Mill". Level land behind the National Hotelwould give space for seven additional parking spaces. Two spaces will be available on property now occupied by the Standard Oil station on Broad St. _ Hart said that the division's study indicates that 37 existing street parking spaces will be replaced by 39 curbside spaces upon completion of the Nevada City freeway.
