Van Milligen, City Ma~7~ Gus Psihoyos, City Engineer ../.~ TO: SUBJECT: Port of Dubuque Ordinance Changes INTRODUCTION Several changes have occurred in Port of Dubuque that necessitate changes to the current Code of Ordinances. DISCUSSION In early 2004 the Port of Dubuque In-House Committee recommended that parking be allowed on portions of Bell Street and Fifth Street as part of the Master Plan for the Port of Dubuque. In June, 2004, the Planning Commission recommended and the City Council approved, a change in street name designation of Fourth Street to Ice Harbor Drive. During construction of Fifth Street and Bell Street, the "No Parking" signs that had been in place, according to existing City Code, were removed; however, the signs were not replaced. The current City Code should be revised to reflect the changes to parking on Bell Street and Fifth Street. (See Exhibit A.) Also the stop signs, parking restrictions, and motor truck routes need to be modified to reflect the street name changes of Fourth Street (now Ice Harbor Drive) and Ice Harbor Road (the section from the Third Street Overpass to First Street now known as Ice Harbor Drive). (See Exhibits B, C, and D.) RECOMMENDATION I recommend changes to the current ordinances pertaining to stop signs, parking restrictions and motor truck routes as described in the attached ordinances. ACTION TO BE TAKEN The City Council is requested to pass the attached ordinances relating to stop signs, parking restrictions, and motor truck routes in the Port of Dubuque.
