<br>
My Council colleagues and I have communicated our feedback to the City administration regarding the challenging rollout of the Homestead Recertification Application and as such, we were able to work with the City to get the deadline extended but also to make recommendations to make the process more seamless. As a result, the new online application is much easier to navigate. </span></p>

Providence residents claiming the homestead exemption must demonstrate proof of residency and identification in order to qualify for the exemption, which will be applied to your July 2021 tax bill.</span></p>

Free Two-Hour Parking During Providence Restaurant Weeks </strong></span> <br>
<br>
The City will offer free, two-hour parking in designated commercial districts in alignment with Providence Restaurant Weeks through February 6, 2021.<br>
<br>
Free two-hour parking will be offered in designated commercial districts throughout our Ward: <br>
<ul>
<li>Downtown Providence – bounded by Fountain Street, Memorial Boulevard, Weybosset Street, Empire Street, and Friendship Street (from Dyer Street to Dorrance Street)</li>
<li>South Main Street – James Street to Packet Street</li>
<li>Thayer Street – Bowen Street to Waterman Street</li>
<li>Wayland Square – East Angell Street/Angell Street to Gano Street and Wayland Avenue from Angell Street to Pitman Street</li>
<li>Wickenden/Ives – Wickenden Street at Benefit Street to Ives Street at Preston Street</li>
<li>While parking meter violations will not be issued during free two-hour parking in the specified districts, parking time limits will be enforced.</li>
</ul>

<p style="margin:1em 0;padding:0;color:#606060;font-family:'Lato', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:15px;line-height:150%;text-align:left;">Parking meters in Providence will no longer be accepting credit cards in 2021. Thus, it is encouraged that city residents currently using credit cards for parking meters to download the <a href="https://johnforward1.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=627d403ab5671dae64834341c&id=d773b55747&e=33715a1852" style="color: rgb(109, 198, 221); font-weight: normal; text-decoration-line: underline; text-decoration-style: solid; text-decoration-color: currentcolor;" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Passport parking application</a>. The Passport Parking App allows you to conveniently pay for parking from anywhere by your mobile device.<br>
<br>
All meters will still accept coins. Since this change has implications on those who do not own Smart Phones, I inquired to the City why this change was made. <br>
<br>
This change resulted because pay-by-cell utilization has increased by over 25% organically with no intentional marketing. Additionally, credit card processing at meters is dependent on wireless networks and with the advent of 5G, if the City chose to continue with the in-person “swipe” feature for credit cards, it would have to make over hundreds of thousands worth of infrastructure and software upgrades. In an effort to be conscious of the budget, the City decided to make a full transition. </p>

Henderson Bridge Updates From The Rhode Island Department of Transportation </strong></span> <br>
<br>
<span style="font-size:16px;">Below is a quoted excerpt from RIDOT's announcement regarding the Henderson Bridge: <br>
<br>
"Starting January 22nd, RIDOT is shifting traffic on the Henderson Bridge. Once the new traffic pattern is in place by the end of the day today (1/22), we will have one lane of travel and one bicycle lane in both the eastbound and westbound directions of the bridge.<br>
<br>
Next week, all operations are anticipated to take place within our existing work zones so no lane closures are scheduled. We plan to remove asphalt from the bridge deck, highway bridge lighting, and the existing safety rail system. Weather and schedule permitting, we may also mobilize barges along the Seekonk River that will house cranes that will be used during demolition and construction activities.<br>
<br>
Learn more about the project <a href="https://johnforward1.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=627d403ab5671dae64834341c&id=9135407166&e=33715a1852" style="color: rgb(109, 198, 221); font-weight: normal; text-decoration-line: underline; text-decoration-style: solid; text-decoration-color: currentcolor;" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">here</a>."</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size:16px;">"Starting Friday, January 22, the Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT) will make additional changes to traffic patterns on the Henderson Bridge in East Providence and Providence, shifting all travel lanes to the side of the bridge carrying eastbound traffic toward East Providence. This change will allow for demolition and reconstruction of the other half of the structure and will be in place for approximately two years.<br>
<br>
One lane in each direction will be open, from South Angell Street and Waterman Street in Providence to North Broadway in East Providence. RIDOT has conducted several lane closures both as part of this project and earlier repair work on the bridge and observed little to no delays. RIDOT will include bike lanes in both directions and a sidewalk.<br>
<br>
Speed limits on the expressway range from 25 mph to 35 mph and will be strictly enforced. RIDOT will add reflective delineators to the striping separating the lanes of traffic. Motorists are advised to reduce speed and drive cautiously through the work zone."<br>
