notify them of the date on which council will consider approving the new restricted parking block. • This notification letter must be mailed ten (10) days prior to the subject council meeting and shall invite comments and attendance by concerned residents of the proposed restricted parking block. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to invalidate the creation of a restricted parking block because of the inadvertent failure of the Traffic Engineer to give the above described written notice or make affidavit thereof or file the same. 6.4 Council Action The Council, by resolution, may then establish permit parking for the block or blocks, in question. In establishing such a restricted parking block the Council shall consider, among other things, the following: (a) the purpose and intent of the permit parking ordinance and regulations, (b) the alternate means of transportation, if any, to and from the restricted parking block being established, (c) the adverse impact that restricting parking in such block might have on nearby neighborhoods that do not have permit parking, and (d) the adverse impact that such restrictions may have on the non-residents of the restricted parking block and their ability to find available parking near their place of work. 6.5 Notice After a New Restricted Parking Block Is Created • In the event that a Permit Parking plan is approved for a residential block, the Traffic Engineer shall notify by regular mail the affected households of that fact, giving residents of those households of the effective date and times of the restricted parking and how to obtain permits, and also notify the representatives of all nonresidential properties within such block. Such nonresidential properties may be provided with parking meters, loading zones, or other restrictions desired by the affected users and consistent with current city policies. • 6.6 A Moratorium For One Year In the event that a Permit Parking plan is not approved for a residential block, the City Traffic Engineer shall not be required to re -survey this block until one year has elapsed, unless conditions have changed substantially. 6.7 Removing Permit Parking Restrictions The signatures representing at least one-half of the affected households within a restricted parking block may be presented to Council requesting removal of parking restrictions on an existing restricted parking block. If such restriction has been removed by Council, no request to re -install the restriction shall be acted upon until one year has elapsed. SZ
