This <br />appears to have reduced the number of students using Lion's <br />Park parking lot. During the past seven school days, the <br />Lion's Park parking lot has not been over half full at any <br />time. The Street/Park Department is proceeding with the <br />installation of four signs that will restrict parking to four <br />hours or less, but it is my feeling that at this point, the <br />parking is no longer an issue. I will continue to monitor the <br />parking lot usage and if there appears to be a problem I will <br />bring it to the Council's attention. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />The City Council should formally approve a motion calling for <br />the installation of the four signs in this parking lot. Please <br />see the attached September, 1993 Park and Recreation Minutes on <br />this issue. <br /> <br />Regarding any concern by the Councilmembers about City <br />liability for students parking in Lion's Park and crossing <br />School Street to their school facility, it is not believed that <br />there is any liability on the City's part. However, if some <br />liability exists, our liability would not be less if we put <br />four hour maximum parking limitations in this area. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />P.O.
