MOUNDS VIEW CITY COUNCIL Regular Meeting Councilmember Hodges stated that he feels that a public hearing should be held to discuss this issue. PatStimpson, 5132 Long Lake Road, said that her husband is the one who gets three or four tickets a week. She asked why they have to pay the fines and no -one else does. She dis- cussed another truck that is usually parked on Silver Lake Road. Mayor McCarty said that the police cannot watch every house and some people may not complain. Mrs. Simpson stated that her husband leaves at 10:00 p.m. on Sunday and does not return until 10:00 p.m. on Thursday. Mayor McCarty stated that they should find out how many tickets had been issued and to whom they were issued. Councilmember Hodges asked if the Police Department could stop issuing tickets until this Ordinance could be studied. Attorney Meyers stated that Police Department can be asked to refrain from issuing tickets. Roger Baumgartner, 7585 N.E. Knollwood Drive, talked about the police issuing tickets. He talked about a truck that parks along Silver Lake Road. He stated that the person pays the fines because it is cheaper than to park elsewhere. Roger Baumgartner stated that he would strongly object to opening up residential property for trucks. Mayor McCarty instructed staff to find out the number of tickets that had been issued to to whom they had been issued before further enforcement of the Ordinance. Mr. Joseph Wheller 7965 Sunnyside Road, stated that their neighbors have a truck and that they feel that they are being picked on.
