WHAT: On August 26, 2020, the City Council will consider a resolution that reinstates parking restrictions on City streets for all vehicles including passenger vehicles and trailers, with the exception of RVs. Since daily positive test results of COVID-19 continue to be reported for our City and the County overall, it is suggested that RVs continue to be exempted from parking enforcement, allowing residents to self-quarantine away from their residence, if necessary.
WHY: In March, the City relaxed enforcement to allow for the temporary parking of Recreation Vehicles (RVs) and other passenger vehicles for more than 72 hours, so long as the vehicles were not obviously abandoned, in an effort to accommodate residents impacted by the Stay at Home Orders that were implemented due to COVID-19. Now, because we are seeing less of a need to allow for passenger vehicles and commercial trailers to be parked on the street continuously and without being moved, staff is recommending reinstating parking restrictions.
WHEN: September 2, 2020, is the date staff will be recommending as an implementation date. This allows a few days after the decision to notify residents of the change in the Order. And, this allows residents a few days to move their vehicles.
