If you drive Second Street in downtown Paintsville on a regular basis, you’ll notice a change in street parking along the block between College and Court streets.
In the area across from Paintsville Elementary School, the street parking pattern has been changed to parallel parking only.
In Tuesday afternoon’s Paintsville City Council meeting, Mayor Bill Mike Runyon said changes are coming to Court Street next.
The council agreed to changing the parking pattern on Court Street to parallel parking on both sides of the street in the section between Second Street and Main Street.
Mayor Runyon said he’s requesting these changes be made on a Monday in an effort to minimize the impact of the work, as some downtown businesses are closed on Mondays.
