Upon recommendation from the parking permit coordinator that the designation criteria and circumstances indicate that removal of permit designation from an entire permit parking area is warranted and appropriate, the transportation engineer may begin proceedings to delete a permit parking area or selected streets of a permit parking area by initiating the following procedure:
A. By giving notice to all addresses within the boundary of the permit parking area proposed to be wholly removed from permit parking designation or within the boundary of an existing permit parking area where certain streets (or portions thereof) are proposed to be deleted from permit parking area, that a public hearing is to be held to consider this action. Such notice shall be given as provided for in subsection 12.64.050G of this chapter.
B. Such notice shall contain:
1. The date, time and place of the public hearing to consider the proposed removal or deletion.
2. A description of the transportation engineer's intention to remove from designation a permit parking area or to delete certain streets (or portions thereof) from an existing permit parking area.
3. A listing of the streets (or portions thereof) proposed for removal from designation or deletion from a permit parking area.
C. The hearing shall be conducted as provided under subsection 12.64.050H of this chapter. The transportation engineer shall take into account the factors justifying the proposed removal of area permit parking designation or the proposed deletion of certain streets (or portions thereof) from an existing permit parking area.
D. Within thirty (30) days of the public hearing the transportation engineer shall approve or deny the proposed removal from permit designation of an entire permit parking area or the proposed deletion of certain streets (or portions thereof) from an existing permit parking area. The transportation engineer shall reduce his decision in writing in the form of a report that shall be filed with the city recorder and made available to any interested party upon request. The transportation engineer's report shall include:
1. Significant subjects and concerns raised at the public hearing conducted;
2. The findings relative to those designation criteria and circumstances which indicate whether or not removal from designation or the deletion of certain streets (or portions thereof) from an existing city permit parking area is warranted;
3. Conclusion as to whether the findings, including testimony obtained at the public hearing, justify the removal from designation or the deletion of certain streets (or portions thereof) from an existing city permit area;
4. The transportation engineer's approval (or denial) of the proposed removal or deletion;
5. If approved, an implementation schedule for removal or deletion.
E. If permit parking area designation is removed from an entire area or if the deletion of certain streets (or portions thereof) from an existing permit parking area is approved, a declaration of removal shall be prepared and distributed using the criteria outlined in subsection 12.64.060C of this chapter. Criteria contained in subsections 12.64.060D through G of this chapter shall apply.
In the case of deleting certain streets (or portions thereof) from an existing permit parking area, the area declaration of designation shall be amended to reflect the approved deletion. (Ord. 69-98 § 1, 1998: Ord. 77-97 § 6, 1997: Ord. 24-97 § 1, 1997)
