SUBJECT:
MEETING OF JUNE 4, 2002 - REGULAR AGENDA
APPROVE THE PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO TITLE VII OF THE CITY CODE
OF ORDINANCES, CHAPTER 71, "PARKING REGULATIONS."
Currently, the City Code of Ordinances specifically identifies the various types of parking zones (2-hour
parking, 4-hour parking, meter zones) broken down by geographic area. Subsequent to the installation of
the multi-space parking meters in the Gleason Street Lot and along Atlantic Avenue east of the
Intracoastal Waterway the Code needs to be amended to reflect these additions. During review it is
evident that changes that make more general references to parking zones and permitted hours are
necessary to provide flexibility and limit the need to amend the ordinance.
Upon direction of the City Manager staff recommends the following revisions to the code.
Sec. 71.041 - Add prohibition of parking on State Road A1A south of Miramar Street and north of
Atlantic Avenue between the hours of 11:00 PM and 5:00 AM (This has been in force but not
codified),
~, Sec. 71.055 - Adding the definition of Multi-Space Meter,
Sec. 71.059 - Eliminating reference to hours of operation for parking meters (8:00 AM - 6:00 PM)
to be regulated by "appropriate signage in the particular parking meter zone."
> Sec. 71.060 - Increasing the cost of Parking Permits from $50 to $60, amending lots the permit is
valid in by changing Holiday Inn North to Orange Grove Lot and including Atlantic Dunes Lot,
Sec. 71.063 - Enacted instead of Chapter 73 imposing time limits designated by signage in a
particular area excluding Sundays and Holidays in addition to making it a violation for parking
outside the designated space markings,
~. Sec. 71.064 - Enacted instead of Chapter 73 making it a violation to park at any meter after time
has expired in addition to making it a violation for parking outside the designated space markings,
~ Sec. 71.091 - Limiting an owner's liability for parking tickets in case of a stolen vehicle.
These amendments will provide greater flexibility in addressing future changes in parking patterns in
addition to creating a more simplified, user friendly code.
The Parking Management Advisory Board, at their meeting of May 28, 2002 unanimously recommended
approval of the proposed amendments to the Title VII of the City Code of Ordinance, Chapter 71,
"Parking Regulations."
By motion, approve the proposed amendments to Title VII of the City Code of Ordinance, Chapter 71,
"Parking Regulations."
