Now the number per household not set in code but in Administrative Directive? Questions I received in emails: I had 3 emails telling me that the consultant said that we would have another public meeting (Town Hall) to discuss parking(one specifically said in February). One said that she needs more time to read through this Ordinance to discuss.Three commented that this should not be rushed. I received two emails with concerns with what is written in regard to parking in alleys: 8.15.080 Parking in Alley. A. No person shall stop,stand or park a vehicle in an alley for any purpose other than the loading or unloading of freight or passengers. B. No person shall stop,stand or park a vehicle in an alley in a manner that blocks the entrance to a garage. The area behind garages in private property! There are already ordinances on infringements into the alley as well as blocking sidewalks.This is overkill and not good for the community in whole.This would also cause more parking issues on our already overcrowded streets.This needs to be re-written with the citizens best interest! I ask that this be removed for further consideration, not voted on and to not be rushed through! It is also requested that a Town Hall meeting be proposed that offers residents, homeowners and renters alike to voice their concerns.That is only fair and just! This appears to limit us from parking behind our own garage is in Old Town. That just puts vehicles on the street that are not on the street now. I charge my electric vehicle behind my garage and don't think I should get a ticket for doing so.
