The date for the Public Hearing will be January 26, 2010 in the City Council Chambers on the 3rd Floor of City Hall.  The City Council meeting starts at 9:30 AM.  This will be the first Council Meeting with our new Mayor, so no telling when the actual public hearing will start.

Thanks for that info; I read the ordinance that's posted and I have a brick parking area off my driveway; I had better go and let them know that, as it looks like that may be illegal.

It seems a lot of people have brick parking areas and it is an issue with the proposed Ordinance.  The new proposed rules require an asphalt or concrete parking surface.  I really do not know what the answer will be for my parking situation.  The street is too busy to park on and I already have a full driveway.  I will have to be at the Public Hearing to hear about our other neighbor's concerns.

Reminder: This issue is scheduled to come up next Tuesday at the City Council Meeting.

The proposed ordinance is posted in the pages section. Read it, and if you disagree with anything contact your council representative or come speak at the meeting!
