SUMMARY STATEMENT:
This agenda bill will engage the City Council in a follow up work session with City staff and legal counsel to discuss ongoing enforcement issues during winter snowplow operations resulting
from:
Private entity snow storage within City public rights-of-way (ROW)
Parking of vehicles and trailers on City streets that interfere with snowplow operations.
The first work session (5/28/21) presented to the Council problems with existing code language and practical challenges for efficient enforcement. Information regarding these concerns
was summarized in the 5/19/21 memo by Nathan Stewart to City Council (attached). Staff recommendations for code revisions were provided with the intent to reengage the Council when
more formal draft code revisions and policy recommendations could be provided.
Accordingly, the goal of this second work session is to present to Council draft code revisions and policy modifications that would provide the most efficient and effective enforcement
alternatives to current practice. Increasing penalties for those violating the City’s ROW snow storage and parking restrictions will also be discussed. Based on feedback from the 5/28/21
work session and additional staff input, legal counsel has prepared draft code revisions/policy modifications that will be provided to the Council at the December 2 meeting.
Pending further direction from council during this work session, final code revisions/policy documentation will be drafted for Council adoption at a subsequent meeting this winter.
