RE: Approve parking regulation change in the Algoma Parking Lot stalls 37-39.
BACKGROUND
The sanitation department has been working with business owners in this area to clean up the
dumpster enclosure in the parking lot. The businesses have been working with their waste disposal
contractor. The contractor is having a hard time accessing the area to perform waste and recycling
removal which is causing the unsightly accumulation of trash at times. These stalls are currently
designated as 2 hour parking (with no parking from 2 -5 a.m. in any timed stalls).
The Traffic and Parking Advisory Board recommends approval. (7-0)
ANALYSIS
This lot is not heavily parked and it is essential we maintain clean, sanitary parking lots and dumpster
enclosures. Extending no parking until a.m. on weekdays will allow the contractor time to empty
their dumpsters. There are ample other parking stalls available in this lot.
FISCAL IMPACT
The fiscal impact of these ordinances is the cost of signage. The signage cost would come out of the
Sign Department operational budget.
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend that the Common Council approve these modifications to Section 27-36 and
corresponding appendix 27B of the Municipal Code pertaining to parking regulations on designated
streets and alleys.
Respectfully Submitted,
Jim Collins
Transportation Director
