SUBJECT:
Ordinance Amending Santa Monica Municipal
Code Section 32380 Relating to Preferential
Parking Zone 0
At its meeting on November 13, 1990, the city Council
directed the City Attorney to prepare an ordinance expanding the
hours during which parking prohibitions are in effect in
Preferential Parking Zone O. In response to this direction, the
accompanying ordinance has been prepared and is presented to the
City council for its consideration.
The accompanying ordinance amends Municipal Code Section
32380 to expand the hours during which parking prohibitions are
in effect in Preferential Parking Zone O. Currently, parking is
prohibited on the streets in this Zone for longer than two hours
between 9:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., Monday through Saturday, except
by permit.
The accompanying ordinance increases the hours
during which parking is prohibited without a permit to between
9:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m.
A Notice of Exemption was prepared in accordance with the
provisions
of
the
California
Environmental
Quality Act.
Therefore, neither a negative declaration nor an Environmental
Impact Report was required.
