Minutes of the Regular Meeting of Council <br />Monday, August 15, 2022 <br />Page 16 <br />Mr. Hughes <br />I appreciate all that was said. I appreciate the resident. I have had the unique opportunity that my <br />windows overlook the cul-de-sac. I'm retired so I have a lot of time to look out the window. <br />There are times when vehicles are double parked because somebody's waiting for somebody to <br />come out or something. As far as parking in front of a mailbox, they shouldn't be there in the <br />first place because if they parked in front of a mailbox, they are also parked too close to the fire <br />hydrant and the fire hydrant is right there next to it. If those things happen, it's not because of <br />the allowed parking on the cul-de-sac. <br />Again, I would just like to reiterate, because I can see where this is going, that you are probably <br />going to vote in favor of it and I understand that, but I still would appreciate if you not start the <br />"no parking" until it comes to 10 feet before the first driveway as you start around which is Jim <br />Farmer's house. I don't think that side over there has much bearing on where the fire trucks <br />would come in or park and so forth to be able to get around and take care of the problems but <br />again if you can evaluate that and decide. That would be my request, to give us at least five or <br />six spots on that side of the street that would benefit us. Thank you very much. <br />Ms. Pirelli stated, I am very sympathetic to the homeowner as a mother of five and trying to get <br />them out in the morning and all that is involved with that and plus safety. I am very sympathetic <br />to that and I think that it should be addressed but I agree with George that we could be given <br />some designated parking spaces. That would be highly appreciated. Is this decided tonight? Is <br />the Chief of Police basically saying the whole cul-de-sac? Is there any leeway here? <br />Council President Schutt replied, tonight is the Third Read for this so we will be voting on it <br />tonight. It was brought out two months ago. <br />A member of the audience stated, no. Not to be mean, but the letter we received was on July 18`h <br />when you guys had your first meeting at 7:00. We received a letter that night. I didn't open it <br />until 8:00 that it was on the agenda for that night. You guys held a Special Meeting that we <br />didn't know about so that's the Second Reading so this is the first time we have had a chance to <br />even come forward. I don't think that's fair. <br />Council President Schutt stated, I am not questioning when you received the letter. This was on <br />First Read at our June Council meeting, Second Read July and now August. <br />A member of the audience stated, no. The first reading was July 18`h, the second was August 1 S` <br />Council President Schutt stated, you are correct. We did have a Special Meeting. <br />Mr. Sipos asked, Councilman, I would like to speak on this as well? <br />Council President Schutt stated, go ahead. <br />IC <br />
