SUBJECT:
Title
Public hearing and first reading of an ordinance amending Section 126-354 of the City of New Braunfels Code of Ordinances to revise Parking by Permit Area G.
Body
BACKGROUND / RATIONALE:
Council District: 5
Upon review of the existing signs for Parking by Permit Area G, staff realized that signs were posted for this Parking by Permit Area on the north side of Lindheimer Avenue between Comal Avenue and Guada Coma Drive without this area being included in the existing ordinance. This proposed ordinance amendment will add this area that already has signs posted into the existing Parking by Permit Area G.
No petitions were received for this amendment; however, this area is a contiguous residential area and matches the schedule of existing parking by permit areas. Additionally, no changes will be made to the existing schedule of Parking by Permit Area G, which is daily between 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., from May 1 to September 30.
The Council Meeting is a public hearing for this consideration. Notices of the public hearing were mailed to all property owners (as shown on the latest tax roll) within a 300 foot radius of the proposed area that already has existing signs.
