Debt Service Funds – Increase in Transfer-Out of $985,000  This amendment provides for the ability to transfer bond funds to the CIP fund for construction. Bond funds are received in a separate fund and only transferred into the construction fund when the construction projects actually occur. In FY14, approximately $985,000 of bond-funded construction actually occurred. The ordinance incorporates the amendment to the FY14 budget. Recommendation is to approve the ordinance adopting an amendment to the FY14 budget with a net effect on the City’s fund balances of a decrease of $985,000.

Alderman Garnholz inquired that the fencing that some restaurants currently have seems to make the outdoor dining areas more uniformed and have a more appealing look. She commented that it is important to maintain an open space for pedestrian access with or without fencing. Alderman Boulton commented that Central Avenue does not have a large streetscape area such as other areas in Clayton and always seems to feel like a “tighter fit”.

AN ORDINANCE TO CONSIDER APPROVING A MODIFICATION TO THE MUNICIPAL TRAFFIC CODE RELATED TO ON-STREET PARKING IN DAVIS PLACE SUBDIVISION

City Manager Owens reported that last year, Public Works received two requests to address existing on-street parking issues in the southern part of Davis Place subdivision on Central Avenue and on North Biltmore Drive. These issues impacted the ability for workers and patrons to park adjacent to two businesses just north of Clayton Road. Presently, the Municipal Code provides for Two-Hour Parking Zones between 8:00 A.M. and 5:00 P.M. at these locations. The requests received by Public Works were to remove these restrictions adjacent to the businesses allowing unrestricted parking for a short distance on each street as shown on Exhibit A. In June 2014 the Two-Hour Parking Zones adjacent to the two businesses were removed and notification was sent to each area indicating the restrictions were being removed for a test period. No concerns have been received regarding either location since they were modified. Given no problems have been experienced with the changes, we believe making these changes permanent is warranted.

No concerns have been received regarding either location since they were modified. Given no problems have been experienced with the changes, we believe making these changes permanent is warranted. Passage of this ordinance is necessary to codify the existing on-street parking restrictions posted in the southern part of Davis Place subdivision on Central Avenue and North Biltmore. Recommendation is to approve the ordinance codifying the existing on-street parking restrictions posted in Davis Place subdivision on Central Avenue and North Biltmore.
