F-4 and F-5:
You will recall that we held the amendment of Section 22-150 off of last weeks
agenda in order for staff to develop a proposed amendment that hopefully will be
more practical and enforceable by the Police Department. The proposed amendment
will not'apply to private property. It will relate strictly to night time
parking in residential areas and on streets designated as arterials. The present
ordinance applies to private property as well as on street parking with the
prohibition being for more than a three hour period between 7:00 P.M. and 7:00 A.M.
The proposed amendment will prohibit the designated types of vehicles from parking
at any time during the night.
In conjunction with this, we are proposing that Section.32-55 be amended. This
will be an ordinance for first reading. This section is referred to as the clear
site zone for intersections. We are proposing to add the words "or the parking
of any vehicle other than passenger cars".
There is no way that this type of an ordinance can be drafted to fit every situation,
but we do think that this is much more realistic, particularly since pickup trucks
equipped with campers are so very common.
PoS,
The above comments are those of Bill Harris's. I asked him to attempt to explain
for me the proposed ordinance changes. To assist you further we are highlighting
those portions deleted from our present ordinance and the additions to the proposed
ordinances.
