WS-1 Discussion of prohibiting overnight parking at City facilities and parks
Assistant City Manager Adrienne Lothery stated this item is to receive City Council
feedback on developing an ordinance which would prohibit overnight parking at City
facilities and parks. She noted some City sponsored events require the full use of
facility parking lots and it can be difficult to require vehicles to be moved prior to an
event to allow for staff and vendor set up. An ordinance would provide a list of public
and park facilities where overnight parking would be prohibited.

forward at the August meeting.
