Unless you're suggesting that homeowners would be exempt from paying in those areas, though... that could work too as sort of a half-measure between free reserved spots and paid reserved spots. Basically a free spot if you live there but not guaranteed. Could work.

Yeah, I was thinking the home owner / primary resident would be given the equivalent of a monthly pass on Parkplus. Anybody else would just pay like regular through the app or by SMS. It kind of maintains the status quo, but adds a bit of revenue for the City. Not sure if the City would make more just issuing fines though.
Just my experience of visiting businesses near these residential permit areas (Capital Hill), where the businesses didn’t have adequate parking, but there was a lot of street parking available.
