City Council Regular Meeting - 02/13/06 Minutes - Page 29 Mayor Klausing was not supportive of an ordinance at this time; however, would be supportive of a resolution of support; and expressed his discomfort with adopting something the legislature may not permit. Mr. Kennedy sought Council approval for the proposed resolution of support. Mayor Klausing directed staff to put the resolution supporting revised legislation on a future agenda for Council consideration. 15. Council Discussion of Proposal for a Parking Study Task Force Councilmember Ihlan referenced her memorandum dated February 7, 2006 and entitled, "Proposal for a Parking Study Task Force," and noted Councilmember Kough's endorsement of the proposed Task Force with further additions incorporated. Klausing moved, Maschka seconded, that the City Council refer the matter to staff, directing them to come back to the City Council with a report on parking within the community (i.e., whether complaints are increasing; if there were common elements of to fielded complaints; and specific complaints regarding student housing); and further directed staff to provide recommendation to the City Council regarding parking ( enforcement and! or code issues) and any other issues as identified in Councilmember Ihlan' s memorandum of February 7, 2006. Mayor Klausing opined that Councilmember Ihlan' s outlined points were good, but the process for a solution was inappropriate without first seeking additional information and input from staff, specifically Public Works and Code Enforcement personnel. Mayor Klausing further opined that, at that time, the Council would be better-informed as to the need for a Task Force, or whether appropriate for the Public Works, Environment and Transportation (PWET) Commission for further study and recommendations. Councilmember Kough expressed his concern in the increasing Discussion of a Proposal for a Parking Study Task Force
