Persons in attendance included: Councilmen McGann, Voorde, Crone, Serge, and Szymkowiak; City Engineer John Leszczynski; Sean Watt, Manager of Transportation; Marchmont Kovas, and Kathleen Cekanski-Farrand, Council Attorney. Councilman Serge announced that the purpose of the meeting was to discuss the idea of restricted parking in residential neighborhoods. He then turned the meeting over to Councilman Szymkowiak. Councilman Szymkowiak stated that there were many reasons why -restricted parking in residential neighborhoods is needed. He noted that with restricted parking from 7 : 00 a.m. through 5 : 00 p.m. each weekday which would correspond to the even and odd days of the month and sides of the street, the Street Department would be able to provide better street sweeping, leaf pick-up, and snow removal services. He stated that he has advocated such a program for over 16 years. John Leszczynski and Sean Watt voiced favorable comments on the need for some type of restricted parking in the residential areas. - Councilman McGann stated that he would prefer a starting time of 8 : 00 a.m. or 8:30 a.m. in light of the many persons who begin work at that fime. - - -• - - Councilman.'Voorde stated that he believed that additional information is needed before the Council could look into this project further. Councilma. Voorde requested the City Engineer to determine whether street signs were needed and if so to determine the number, cost, and cost of maintenance. He also requested the number of- residential blocks which would be affected. • Councilman Voorde then suggested alternatives to Councilman Szymkowiak' s plan, namely: (1) Restrict parking from 9 a.m. to 2 p.-m. ; -(2) Prohibit parking on the odd side of the- street on Monday and Tuesday, and on the even side of the street on Wednesday and Thursday; (3) that residentia streets with one-side only parking would not be affected; (4) that there would be no restrictions on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday; and (5) that the program not begin until September 1st or October 1st. - A considerable amount of discussion followed with Councilman Voorde further suggesting that the Police Department should also be contacted about such a program. Councilman Szymkowiak again reviewed why he believed the 7 : 00 a.m. to 5 : 00 p.m. restriction would be better. He then suggested that persons such as Tom Gargos from the Police Department and Ralph Wadzinski from Traffic and Lighting be present at the next meeting. !MCC PRESS Isjou rUCLICNIN6 CO. - • Page 2 .

I believe this is the section which would have to be amended. Hopefully by the Committee reading the present language on the books, we can work together in suggesting appropriate amendatory language. I am also attaching a copy of the last meeting for your information. Thank you. • , L • (/) (n 'O '� h a Cr R. 1. CY d 'O a' co gh' 0 CO3° < m co N Gm p• A N ~ m 't 00 O.d .'
