good physical
candidate for 50–60
safe parking spaces
in the near term. Will
become the 42nd

[NO]
Temporary status due to 42nd Ave Extension
makes capital investment in modular/cabin housing
fiscally irresponsible — infrastructure would need to
be relocated within the construction window.
[YES]
39,261 sf paved — well-suited for vehicle
storage in the near term before 42nd Ave

infrastructure may support co-located safe parking.
Negotiate co-use terms before advancing.; Trybe license active; portion of lot unutilized
[YES]
31,033 sf paved lot —
prior Safe RV site
with infrastructure
potentially still in place
(utility hookups,
lighting). Current

[YES]
383,328 sf fully paved

T1 site on the list.
Contamination is

[CONDITIONAL]
Paved surface limits cabin placement options

[YES]
383,328 sf fully paved — excellent for
vehicle/RV storage. Contamination capped
under asphalt; do not disturb cap (no trenching).
County co-use agreement is gating item. Could

is already in process for this site, making housing the clear priority. Safe parking should only be considered if housing falls through.

275,000 sf flat lot — safe parking is physically viable (could support 200+ spaces) but Phase I environmental
assessment is required first. If Phase 1 of interim housing development occupies the eastern portion of the lot, safe parking could be co-located on the western portion as an interim measure pending full build-out.
