Canandaigua DMV eyes new home to solve parking woes
In an effort to ease customer wait times and provide more parking, the Department of Motor Vehicles office in Canandaigua may be on the move, as soon as late 2027 or early 2028. It won't be moving far. As part of the Atwater Place project, the plan is to take over 6,000 square feet of first-floor space in the historic Canandaigua Post Office location at 32 N. Main St., just about a third of a mile away and still in the city. The Ontario County District Attorney's office already operates at this former Canandaigua YMCA location. Why move the Canandaigua DMV? According to Ontario County Administrator Chris DeBolt, the DMV has outgrown its space at 20 Ontario St. "We often have members of the public waiting outside to be served," DeBolt said in a text, and parking is also a challenge for customers. Between 20 and 30 parking spaces are available at the current DMV site; more than 100, including street parking, would be available at its new location. "We hope it will relieve some pressure on our parking lot while providing easier, and more available, parking for those utilizing the DMV," DeBolt said. What will change at Atwater Place
