4. PARKING PASSES - AURORA CITY PARKING ON PUBLIC PROPERTY ORDINANCE DISCUSSION
Mr. Johnson had informed the planning commission prior to the meeting that at the last city council meeting, an idea about selling parking passes to help regulate truck parking throughout the community was discussed. The city council wanted the planning commission to think through some of the issues involved in implementing such a program. The planning commission discussed the pros and cons of such a program and determined that they would not support such a program. Many felt that it raised too many issues and questions about enforcement and ability to run such a program. All of the visitors to the planning commission meeting were vocal in their opposition to such an ordinance and anything to do with regulating truck parking within the city limits. The planning commission determined that they would like to return the ordinance to the city council stating that they stand behind the ordinance, with a few changes, and needed direction from the city council as to which direction that they would like to proceed.
5. CONTINUED WORK ON SECTION 15 OF AURORA CITY ORDINANCES
The planning commission spent the remainder of the meeting continuing work on the Section 15 of the Aurora City ordinances.
6. ADJOURNMENT-
