Handicap parking request at 950 Garfield St. tabled for follow-up
Summary
A request for curbside handicap parking at 950 Garfield St. (applicant Eva Demoff) was tabled after the applicant was not present and staff reported enforcement concerns; Mayor Huddlestun noted the residence has a usable garage.
The Board considered a request from Eva Demoff for a curbside handicap parking sign at 950 Garfield St. but the applicant was not present at the July 15 meeting. Assistant Police Chief Wardrip said staff had attempted to contact the owner without success and that enforcement of a curbside permit could pose challenges.
Mayor Huddlestun noted that other communities allow curbside handicap spaces as a last resort but said this residence has a garage. He described measurements showing distance from the garage to the back door and from the street to the front door are roughly the same, and the board voted to table the item to permit further contact with the owner.
The motion to table passed unanimously (3-0). The minutes record no final determination on eligibility or an enforcement plan; the item was deferred for follow-up contact with the owner.
