Committee delays discussion with Traffic Commission on winter parking towing numbers

At the City Council committee meeting on Friday, Aug. 1, the committee postponed detailed discussion of an agenda item concerning communication with the Traffic Commission about the number of vehicles towed under the city's winter parking procedures so that a deputy could attend and speak on the matter.

Committee members indicated there were no objections to delaying the item. Councilors said they would revisit the topic when the deputy was available to provide the counts and related details.

No figures for the number of vehicles towed were provided in the committee meeting transcript and no formal motion with a recorded vote was taken; the committee agreed by voice to take more time on the item.

The item remains on the agenda for a future meeting with the Traffic Commission and staff expected to provide additional information.
