Exhibit A - Red-lined copy of the draft ordinance <br />2. Exhibit B - Copy of the draft ordinance <br />3. Exhibit C - Resolution of parking fees <br /> <br />BACKGROUND <br /> <br />The Police Chief and the Fire Chief have requested that the Council <br />consider an ordinance amendment to the existing city code that <br />would give the Fire Chief the authority to enforce fire lane parking <br />violations. The existing ordinance only allows the Police <br />Department to issue parking tickets for fire lane violations. <br /> <br />An amendment is also proposed to section 1100.10 (8) which <br />incorrectly describes the terms for parking at the municipal parking <br />lots along the railroad tracks. <br /> <br />The Police Chief has requested that Section 1100.10 (1) relating to <br />penalties be corrected as the information in this outdated.
