Regular city Council Meeting Monday, July 22, 2019 Page 14 The Councilmembers agreed. Mayor Roe offered the opportunity for public comment, with no one coming forward. Mayor Roe inquired if approval required the majority of the entire Council or a majority of the Councilmembers present. City Attorney Hartmann indicated it should be approval of the Councilmembers present. Etten moved, Groff seconded, enactment of Ordinance 1575 entitled, "An Ordi- nance Amending §1009.02.D (Conditional Use-Specific Criteria) of the Roseville City Code," with the language as amended. Roll Call Ayes: Groff, Etten, and Roe. Nays: None e. Snow Event Parking Discussion Public Works Director Marc Culver briefly highlighted this item as detailed in the RCA and related attachments dated July 22, 2019. Councilmember Etten thanked staff for the work done on this item. He asked if staff was recommending that a snow emergency declaration be made. Mr. Culver indicated that was correct and would be similar to what other cities have where once a snow emergency declaration has been made, there is no park- ing on the streets at all until streets are cleared curb to curb. In some cases, it will state for 48 hours or some other time frame and make the enforcement and mes- sage easier for people. He was not sure how well the residents would respond to something like that and the City of Roseville would have to be aggressive in enforcement and at some point, may have to tow vehicles in a pretty large number to make a dramatic difference in some of the areas where there are issues with parking. Councilmember Etten appreciated that the Communications Department had done some outreach and wondered if it had been useful in other languages. Mr. Culver indicated one thing he would like to do is work with the Police Department specifically to distribute the notices and also with the GARE group to get some of the notices translated. Then there needs to be discussion as to whether notices need to be in multiple languages. Most of that message sent out is a canned message and can be translated. It is when there are detailed items for the specific storms where things get more difficult.
