DISCUSSION:

 

Currently the City of New Braunfels Code of Ordinances requires that water recreation shuttle vehicle permits are secured by May 1st. Some river outfitters do not open until closer to Memorial Day, but due to the May 1st requirement they have to get vehicles insured by May 1st that are not in operation. The recommendation is to push the date for water recreation shuttle vehicle permits from May 1st to May 15th. This will allow staff enough time to finalize shuttle permit applications before the Memorial Day weekend. A recommendation will be taken to City Council for consideration. Proposed ordinance revision text is below:
