Waukesha committee removes designated handicap parking spot at Madison and Washington
Summary
The Waukesha City Parking & Grounds Committee voted to remove a designated handicap parking space at the northwest corner of Madison Street and Washington Avenue after staff reported the resident it had served has died and one of the signs already was removed.
The Waukesha City Parking & Grounds Committee voted May 5 to remove a designated handicap parking space at the northwest corner of Madison Street and Washington Avenue.
City staff told the committee the space had been established for a specific handicapped resident who has since died and one of the two signs marking the space had already been removed. "That was the same rundown that I would provide. So, we're recommending removal," a city staff member said during the meeting.
Alderman Rick Lemke moved to remove the space; a committee member identified as Mike seconded the motion. The chair called the question and members voted aye; the motion passed.
The committee record notes the location was originally requested by former Alderman Quarry Payne. No additional follow-up items, timeline for sign removal, or cost estimates were provided during the meeting.
Committee members did not raise legal or budgetary objections at the time of the vote. The committee moved to the next agenda item after the motion passed.
