HomeMy WebLinkAboutA001 - Council Action Form, January 4, 1983 COUNCIL ACTION FORM
Date: January 4, 1983
SUBJECT: First reading of an ordinance prohibiting parking on Walnut Avenue.
BACKGROUND: For a number of years parking has been prohibited on the east side
of South Walnut Avenue between South 5th Street and Lincoln Way. This
was established in 1976 in response to parking problems created by a heavy
concentration of apartment buildings in the area. The parking prohibition
was listed in the old Ames Code, however, it contained a significant error
in that it prohibited parking on Walnut Avenue between Lettie Street and
Lincoln Way. Lettie Street does not intersect with Walnut Avenue and
is located approximately three (3) miles west of this location. Thus, it
is necessary to correctly codify the existing parking prohibition. The
Public Works Department has not received any complaints in recent months
regarding the existing street signs and thus it is believed that an
administrative hearing on the proposed ordinance is not necessary.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Approve the ordinance on its first reading prohibiting parking on the
east side of Walnut Avenue between the north line of South 5th Street
and the south line of Lincoln Way.
2. Direct that an administrative hearing be held gathering the comments
of area residents.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: It is recommended that the first reading of the ordinance
be passed.
