Parking in South Cape Coral (WINK News)

The pervasive issue with parking in the south section of Cape Coral frustrates locals who are seeking a solution to remedy this longstanding issue.

The City of Cape Coral held a community redevelopment agency meeting Wednesday morning to discuss any progress regarding its parking overhaul project.

Engineers and planners of the South Cape Parking Management had researched and found that 7,000 parking spaces are available.

The issue motorists encounter is locating the spots and if they’re willing to walk to their destination from them.

Engineers and planners have recommended clearer signage for parking and building a parking garage near Cape Coral Parkway East.

The former Cape Coral Golf Club, which is privately owned, was brought up, and the agency has an interest in acquiring the property.

The City is obtaining an appraisal to determine the value of the property.
