Discussion and Direction on Commercial Vehicle Parking Throughout the City. (Police Chief Brown) A source of many complaints is the on-street parking of commercial vehicles, defined as weighing more than one ton, in commercial, or mixed-use zoned districts within the City. The City's current code reads, "The parking of commercial vehicles on public streets and road rights-of-way within any residential zoned district, including residential planned unit developments, as established by the Land Development Code for the City, shall be prohibited, except for loading purposes or as otherwise expressly permitted by the Land Development Code." The Police Department has the ability to properly enforce the parking of commercial vehicles within residential zones. However, further direction is required on the commercial or mixed-use zones.Additionally,the number of outstanding fines for the last year is 155 and at 62 year-to-date. Currently, the City has no mechanism for collecting these fines. Staff is seeking direction on whether to seek registration holds and/or collections for personal vehicles and/or commercial vehicles. Deputy Chief McCosker explained this item has been a topic of conversation at the Police Department which is why staff is requesting discussion and direction on this subject. He further provided a brief overview of the current Land Development Code(LDC)which currently governs the parking of commercial vehicles within residential zones only. No mention of commercial vehicles parked within commercial or mixed use properties are included in this section of the LDC. The Police Department has the ability to properly enforce the parking of commercial vehicles within residential zones, however, further direction is required on the commercial or mixed-use zones. Additionally, the number of outstanding fines for the last year is 155 and at 62 year-to-date. Currently,the City has no mechanism for collecting these fines. Staff is also seeking direction on whether to pursue registration holds and/or collections for personal vehicles and/or commercial vehicles. Commissioner Wilsen shared the complaints she has been receiving in her district are for tow trucks which is why she wanted this discussion. Deputy Chief McCosker explained commercial vehicles are classified by weight and he is not sure that a tow truck will be included. Commissioner Brinson shared he has not received any complaints on the north or south side of his district. He further inquired how the Police Department handles violators. Deputy Chief McCosker explained they try to get compliance through education which is why a 48-hour tow notice is given. On some occasions,they may issue a citation and tow the vehicle. Commissioner Brinson inquired about vehicles parked on residential lawns. City Planner Rumer advised that within residential districts there is a provision that prohibits commercial trucks and RV's,that are longer than 36-feet to be parked on a property. If it is 36-feet or less it is to be parked in the side rear yard hidden by a 6-foot fence. Commissioner Brinson shared this is a tough discussion because many residents use commercial vehicles as the means to their livelihood. Commissioner Firstner shared that he agrees with commercial vehicles not being parked in the right-of-way and feels there should be enforcement. However,he does not agree with enforcement of on-street parking for personal vehicles. He explained many Homeowners Associations (HOA) are under legal battle for trying to enforce covenants that prohibit on-street parking.Deputy Chief 12IPage Regular City Commission Meeting June 18,2019 McCosker advised the Police Department and the City do not have any part in what is enforced by an HOA in its community. He further clarified that the discussion this evening with regard to personal vehicles only deals with the collection of fines. City Attorney Cookson clarified that the first issue the City Commission needs to take into consideration is whether to extend the prohibition of commercial vehicles in commercial and mixed-use areas in the City. City Planner Rumer shared the current code reads, "The parking of commercial vehicles on public streets and road rights-of-way within any residential zoned district..." and if they were to strike out"residential zoned districts"this would now prohibit parking of commercial vehicles throughout the City. This change in the code would then require commercial vehicles to park in an appropriately created parking lot. This change would benefit the City as they proceed with future development plans. Mayor Johnson inquired how can they enforce the fines as that is a major issue. City Manager Frank shared there are options such as the registration holds, boots on the vehicle,and/or collection agencies. He further shared that if the City Commission proceeds with the verbiage change of the code, then City staff can research enforcement methodology to bring back for consideration at a future meeting. Brief discussion ensued. Deputy Chief McCosker announced that at the June 4th City Commission Meeting there was conversation regarding the Bill Breeze Park, specifically about Starke Lake and the boat dock. He addressed the concerns related to law enforcement advising that the officers using the boat are completing specialized training, so they are properly trained. Additionally, a larger police presence is out by the park to assist in enforcing the rules. Parks Operation Manager Abdo continued by sharing that he researched the boat ramp and parking permit concern and has a few options to share. He presented several fee models that are currently being enforced in Winter Park, Orange County, and Palm Beach County. Discussion ensued on the options and agreement was that a permit should be required, and that residents should get a discounted rate. City Manager Frank shared city staff can come back with a program and enforcement plan as they further develop the lakefront.
