Council adopts ordinances limiting commercial/heavy vehicle parking, trailers and vehicle work on roadways
Summary
Council passed three ordinances updating the city code governing commercial and heavy vehicle parking, restricting trailer/towed vehicle parking hours, and banning selling/washing/repairing vehicles on roadways. Chief Nabel had previously presented in favor of the measures.
Council approved multiple code changes intended to regulate commercial vehicle parking and roadside vehicle activity. The ordinances update section 351.06 to regulate commercial and heavy vehicle parking, add a new section 351.15 limiting hours for trailers and towed vehicles parked on streets, and add section 351.16 prohibiting selling, washing or repairing vehicles upon the roadway.
Council discussion noted Chief Nabel spoke in support of these amendments at the prior meeting; the ordinances were moved and approved without further amendment. The measures were framed as public-safety and nuisance controls and were adopted by voice vote.
