Date: January 26, 1982
SUBJECT: On street parking regulations on Stanton Avenue.
BACKGROUND: Council authorized the paving of the parking area at 207 Stanton
Avenue to provide a curbside parking area serving the needs of
Ev Cochrane and Associates. The Ames Code prohibits on street

is less than the minimum required width as currently listed in
the Ames Code. ( 15.0 feet) .
ALTERNATIVES: 1. Direct the City Attorney to prepare an ordinance that would
prohibit parking on the west side of Stanton Avenue from a
point 92. 5 feet south of the south line of Chamberlain
Street to the south line of Knapp Street.
2. In addition to alternative one, direct the City Attorney
to alter Section 18. 10(2) to include the west side of
Stanton Avenue from the south line of Chamberlain Street
to a point 92.5 feet south of the south line of Chamberlain
Street as an area where angle parking is permitted.
