Session 1523, Minutes Page 11 Jtne 18, 1990 Mrs. Schuman moved that this bill be adopted as an ordinance. Mr. Wagner sec- onded the motion. In response to Mr. Schooner, Mr. 011endorff said he was not sure when his sug- gested changes should be attached to either this enabling bill or a later one. Mrs. Schuman said his amendments would destroy the intent of the bill. She said specifics would came later, after the petition is received by the Traffic Commission and the Council. Mr. Adams said he did not like the concept that he would be prevented from parking on a public street. He also questioned Section 1(6) of the bill, suggesting that granting a permit for each vehicle was discriminatory since some families have more cars than others. Responding to Mr. Price, Mayor Majerus said the street will be posted to designate the type of parking allowed, and those parking without a permit may receive a ticket. Mr. Schooner said he felt the proposed legislation was discriminatory and he would rather see no parking at all instead of that proposed. Mr. Adams said he is opposed to legislation that favors a particular group and excludes others. Mr. Wagner said the bill is really not site specific and is written so that any block in the City that has the severe problems that the 7000 block of Pershing has can petition the Traffic Commission for relief. Mr. Price asked the City Manager if he thought there would be a flood of petitions if this bill is passed. Mr. 011endorff said the staff would continue to discour- age residents who want the exclusive right of their street for parking. The roll call vote was as follows: AYES: Councilmembers Price, Wagner, Schu- man, and Mayor Majerus. NAYS: Councilmembers Adams and Schoomer. ABSENT: Councilmember Thompson. The motion carried by a vote of four to two, and Bill No. 7963 (as amended) became Ordinance No. 5756.
