SUBJECT:
Title
Approval of the first reading of an ordinance amending Section 126-186 of the Code of Ordinances to prohibit through truck traffic on Oak Run Parkway.
Body
BACKGROUND / RATIONALE:
Council District: 3
In November 2018, City Council approved a No Through Truck restriction on Oak Run Parkway between Loop 337 and SH 46. The ordinance that was passed should have added this section onto the existing through truck restriction from SH 46 to Oak Brook Drive, but instead replaced that section with the newly requested section. This ordinance is to correct that and create a through truck restriction on Oak Run Parkway between Oak Brook Drive and Loop 337.

FISCAL IMPACT:
Traffic control signs cost approximately $150 each. Sufficient funding is allocated in the FY 2018-19 Public Works budget to support traffic signage.
