Honorable F. Paul Goodland, Mayor
And Members of the City Council
Of The City of Ames, Iowa
In Re : CBD Parking Lot Regulation Changes
Dear Mayor Goodland and Council Members :
At the Council ' s meeting of May 19 it considered the Central Business
District Committee ' s parking proposal and adopted a motion to imple-
ment the Manager ' s recommended action. One aspect of the Manager ' s
recommended action is to :
"establish no parking within the CBD Lots from
2 :30 a.m. to 6 : 00 a.m. daily, except for 24 hour
rental spaces . "
Herewith please find a form of ordinance which will be on the agenda
for first reading at the Council ' s meeting of June 2 to prohibit
parking in the CBD Lots between 2 : 30 a.m and 6 :00 a.m. daily, except
for those vehicles lawfully parked in reserved spaces . There has
been some discussion that the time limit perhaps should be 3 :00 a.m.
to 6 :00 a.m. If so, the Council may make this change before enacting
the ordinance upon its first consideration.
A resolution to amend the official parking meter map to officially
eliminate the meters from the CBD lots will be ready for presentation
to the City Council at the meeting of June 16.
Respectfully submitted,
John R. Klaus
City Attorney
