FY 05 Budget - Required Ordinance Changes
To:
From:
Introduction
The purpose of this memo is to provide to you Code of Ordinance changes that will be
required should the Parking Division budget be accepted as submitted.
Discussion
Though the development of the FY 05 budget it was necessary to adjust certain fees to
provide sufficient revenue. Those fees requiring an ordinance change include parking
meter rates (32-337) and parking fine increases (32-279). Other increases not requiring
an ordinance change were also submitted. Those are parking ramp fees which per the
Code of Ordinance are to be set by the City Manager and approved by the City Council.
We are also asking that the application of the courtesy parking ticket program be
adjusted. An ordinance change is not required for the adjustment. .
Action ReQuested
Based on review of the budget proposal, it is requested that you approve and submit to
the City Council the suggested Code of Ordinance changes as part of the approval of
the Fiscal Year 2005 budget for the Parking Division.
