§ 10.41.030. Designation power and criteria.

A.

The director shall prepare rules and procedures for the designation of preferential parking districts setting forth the petition process, reporting requirements, criteria for designation of a preferential parking district and for the implementation and administration of this chapter. Those rules and procedures, and any revisions thereto, shall be effective upon approval by the city council.

B.

A preferential parking district shall be created:

1.

Where the city council has found that unrestricted parking by nonlocal vehicles creates a situation in which the streets cannot be used for parking by the residents or their guests and that such unrestricted parking substantially and unreasonably, regularly interferes with the use of a majority of the available public street parking, is the source of unreasonable noise, traffic hazards, environmental pollution or of other interference with the residential environment, and detrimentally affects the public welfare; or

2.

Where hourly time limited parking restrictions are in place in residential areas for the purpose of limiting parking intrusion from institutional and/or commercial uses.
