How does Jefferson County Public Library plan to deal with the parking issue in Olde Town?
The City of Arvada is funding the addition of a public city parking lot next to the new Arvada Library. Jefferson County Public Library and the city have conducted parking analyses that show the new parking lot will provide ample parking for visitors to the new library for use by library patrons. There are also several hundred nearby public parking spaces within reasonable walking distance to the library, all already available in Olde Town. For convenience there will be a drop-off area for visitors directly in front of the new Arvada Library entrance on 57th Avenue. In addition, there will be a convenient drive-up book drop in the alley behind the facility and a walk-up book drop at the entrance on 57th Avenue. Handicapped parking is planned next to the library on Webster Street.
