Hermiston to prohibit parking along section of S.W. 3rd Street

The public will not be allowed to park on a portion of S.W. Third Street following action taken Monday night by the Hermiston City Council.

The council voted unanimously to prohibit public parking on the street between Orchard Avenue and Locust Avenue. On the west side of the street, the no-parking zone would go from the intersection with Orchard, 155 feet to the north, roughly equating to the frontage of the Food Pod on to S.W. Third Street. On the east side of the street, the zone would be 40 feet between the driveways to the city-owned parking lot.
