COMMENTS:  

This item amends city regulations regarding the parking of motor vehicles. These changes may impact revenue collected from fines for parking violations; however, the potential change in revenue from this action is indeterminable and likely to have minimal impact on the City of Plano's operating budget.


SUMMARY OF ITEM


The City of Plano Code of Ordinances, Chapter 12, Motor Vehicles and Traffic, Article V, Stopping, Standing and Parking, Section 12-115 Parking of certain equipment in certain zoning districts, regulates the parking of vehicles and the surfaces on which they are parked or stored to prevent public nuisances.

The proposed ordinance amendment consolidates the parking surface requirements for all zoning districts within the Code of Ordinances and makes the penalty references for parking surface and commercial parking violations consistent with the remainder of Chapter 12. This amendment also sets minimum fines for repeat and habitual offenders to create increased deterrents.
