Letter about no‑parking sign at 12 Cedar will be placed on next agenda; commissioners approved minutes and adjourned
Summary
A dropped‑off letter asked the commission to remove a no‑parking sign at 12 Cedar; staff reviewed 2020 records and fire officials oppose removal because apparatus access could be hindered. The commission accepted prior minutes and adjourned.
The police commission received a letter asking that a small no‑parking sign at the end of a driveway at 12 Cedar be removed; the chair circulated the letter and a photograph and said staff would place the item on a future agenda for a vote.
Staff reviewed archived meeting records and reported that in a July 13, 2020 traffic commission meeting a traffic officer requested the sign because parked cars had blocked school buses, garbage trucks and at least once prevented fire apparatus from getting through. The fire director said a fire truck drove the area and recommended keeping the signs to avoid blocking apparatus access. The chair said public works and traffic staff will be consulted before the matter returns to the agenda.
During the meeting the commission moved to accept the May 11, 2026 regular meeting minutes; the motion was seconded and the chair recorded the motion as carried with one opposition and one abstention noted in the discussion, though the transcript does not specify individual names for those votes. Later, commissioners moved and seconded to adjourn; the motion carried and the meeting ended.
No formal vote on the Cedar sign occurred at the meeting; staff recommended bringing the item back with supporting documentation so the commission can consider it at a future meeting.
