Stockbridge parking ordinance implementation moving forward

A few months after adopting an ordinance to address on-street parking within residential subdivisions, the Stockbridge City Council at its Feb. 11 regular meeting received an update on the ongoing process of developing guidelines for overseeing the implementation and permitting process for parking.

Community development director Camilla Moore made the presentation to the mayor and council, noting that the public works department has completed its inventory of city streets that will be affected. A mailer will go out to citizens in March informing them about the new ordinance and procedures.

Warning notices will be issued for three months prior to citations being issued, according to the report homeowner associations currently have the ability to tow vehicles, but not to use booting.
