Committee backs repeal of Cheyennepaid on-street parking districts on third reading
Summary
The City of Cheyenne Public Services Committee voted to recommend final adoption of an ordinance repealing the municipal program that established paid on-street parking districts, removing a requirement that vehicles be moved an entire block face and updating regulatory authority for on-street parking.
The City of Cheyenne Public Services Committee on March 3 voted to recommend adoption on third and final reading of an ordinance repealing the city—s paid on-street parking districts program and amending the municipal code—s regulatory authority over on-street parking.
The ordinance removes a current code requirement that a vehicle parked in a timed zone must be moved an entire block face to reset time limits; staff said the provision would be deleted and that parking sign time limitations are elsewhere in the code at 10.6.0.01. Committee members said the mayor had spoken with business owners, who urged removing the block-face requirement; the mayor was reported to be online and to have relayed that message to staff.
Chairman Seagrave opened the item and staff provided a brief report noting this was the ordinance—s third reading. No members of the public spoke on the ordinance during the committee meeting. A committee member moved to approve on third and final reading and another member seconded; the motion was approved by voice vote and the committee—s recommendation will go to the full City Council for Monday night consideration.
The staff report referenced sign time limitations in municipal code section 10.6.0.01 as part of the regulatory updates. No roll-call vote or numerical tally was recorded in the committee transcript; the outcome in committee was approval by voice vote.
The committee—s recommendation does not itself change the code; final adoption will occur if the City Council votes to adopt the ordinance at the scheduled council meeting.
