Body

BACKGROUND / RATIONALE:

Council District:  5

 

A public hearing was held on February 27, 2017.  City Council unanimously approved the first reading of the ordinance to amend Section 126-354 of the City of New Braunfels Code of Ordinances to revise Parking by Permit Area A.

Upon review of the existing signage and the ordinance for Parking by Permit Area A, it was determined that Parking by Permit Area A signs are posted along Cross River Street east of South Washington Avenue but this area of the street is not listed in the City’s Code of Ordinances. The area consists of single-family homes.

The proposed designated parking by permit area additions are part of a contiguous residential area and match the schedule of existing parking by permit areas.
