1 Hamer said as long as he had been with the City, the policy <br /> 2 had been not to allow parking on the boulevards because of <br /> 3 problems with plowing heavy snowfalls and covering up parked <br /> 4 cars. <br /> 5 Marks asked if the Council was going to make the station <br /> 6 take the concrete out. <br /> 7 Childs said he knew of nothing in the City' s Ordinance which <br /> 8 prevented the station from paving the right-of-way; recalled <br /> 9 that when the owner had been granted a permit to upgrade the <br /> 10 station, there had been a discussion of landscaping and <br /> 11 parking, but he would have to check the minutes to see what <br /> 12 was specified. <br /> 13 <br /> 14 Makowske indicated she personally thought the concrete was <br /> 15 "less tacky and cleaner looking" than unkept grass in that <br /> 16 area, but didn't want allowing this to become a "permission <br /> 17 slip" for parking on the concrete. <br /> 18 Enrooth agreed with the Mayor that the station had always <br /> 19 parked cars on the boulevard when it was grass; <br /> 20 said he didn' t believe it had been a concern with keeping <br /> 021 up a sodded right-of-way but rather a desire to park cars <br /> 22 in that area which had prompted paving it over. <br /> 23 Childs said he would look again at the pertinent minutes to <br /> 24 be sure there wasn' t something there which the City could <br /> 25 use to prevent parking on the cemented area; and <br /> 26 would further research the Ordinance to see if it contained <br /> 27 any type of restriction which applied. <br /> 28 Hamer said he was sure there was an Ordinance which required <br /> 29 City Manager permission for planting or anything else on the <br /> 30 City right-of-way. <br /> 31 Soth said "even if you didn' t have an Ordinance stating <br /> 32 that, it would nevertheless be true.
