The Municipal Services Committee met 10/24/2023. The final action item they took up was Resolution 11-R-23. If passed as written, this resolution would allow for overnight on-street parking by people who have purchases monthly parking passes.
The committee voted to hold it for a month to allow staff to review it.
I’ve prepared a transcript of the discussion for review.
Alderperson William Siebers (District 1), the author of the resolution, started out the conversation by asking for the resolution to be held. Although he had talked with the Police Chief and the Director of Public Works prior to introducing the resolution, he believed there was more work that needed to be put into it so that the committee could have a healthy debate and discussion on the proposal.
Some of the other alderpersons expressed a desire for investigation into specific issues related to on-street overnight parking, including the potential for alternating sides of the streets that parking was allowed on and plans for increased enforcement.
The committee voted unanimously to hold the item for 30 days.
