<br /> <br />Staff is suggesting that the code be amended to state that oversized/commercial vehicles shall <br />not be parked on a public street or highway except for the purposes of loading, unloading or <br />rendering a service. This would allow commercial vehicles to be present when needed and <br />would eliminate the need for Staff to spend time checking on vehicles; if the commercial vehicle <br />was there for the occasional need, such as for furniture deliver, then it would not be necessary to <br />enforce the code, but if a commercial vehicle was there repeatedly and was causing a nuisance <br />situation, Staff would have the ability to issue a ticket immediately, which would hopefully deter <br />the driver of the commercial vehicle from returning with it. <br /> <br />In most cases, the use of commercial vehicles is occasional and generally does not disrupt the <br />neighborhood, however, when the vehicle is owned by a resident and used for business <br />purposes (which is usually the case), it can be very disruptive. Staff has received complaints <br />regarding commercial vehicles, specifically about the noise and vibration caused by the <br />oversized vehicle. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />Staff is seeking input from the Council as to whether or not to proceed with a code amendment <br />regarding commercial vehicles. If the Council feels it is appropriate, please direct Staff to begin <br />writing a code amendment. <br /> <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br /> <br />Kristin Prososki <br />Planning Associate <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
