Board opens public hearing on parking ordinance 2506; third reading set for Nov. 18
Summary
Supervisors opened the public hearing for ordinance 2506, a county parking enforcement and penalties measure, received one media inquiry about location and warning practices, and scheduled a third reading for Nov. 18 at 10:00 a.m.
Bremer County supervisors opened a public hearing on the second reading of ordinance 2506, which establishes enforcement and penalties for county parking zones, and set the third reading for Nov. 18 at 10:00 a.m.
Landon introduced the second reading and asked whether the auditor's office had received written comments. Staff reported a voicemail from the Waverly newspaper raising questions about the ordinance's scope (the paper asked about the Wapsi school location, which Landon said is outside this ordinance) and whether a warning should precede a $25 fine. County staff said posted signs function as the warning mechanism for the ordinance.
The board opened and then closed the public hearing after no in-person public testimony. By motion (moved by Corey, seconded by Bob), supervisors voted to move the ordinance to a third reading; the board set Nov. 18 at 10:00 a.m. for the next hearing.
What comes next: the ordinance will return for a third reading on Nov. 18, at which time supervisors may adopt, amend or further consider the proposed enforcement measures.
