City Ordinance Amendment/KV. Parking
RE:
After reviewing the recommendation to amend the City Code 18-9J(B), allowing a recreational
vehicle to park on a public street for one (I) day as opposed to the current structure allowing for
three (3) days parking in a calendar month, J have concluded the following:
Parking the K V. on a public street for one (1) day indicates a full twenty-four hours in a calendar
month. In order to enforce the ordinance, a police officer will have to mark the location of the R.
V to determine if the vehicle has been moved during that twenty-four hour period. Should the
vehicle be moved for any length of time it will not be feasible for the officer to enforce the or-
dinance until another twenty-four hours have passed to ensure noncompliance by remarking the
vehicle location.
J believe most citizens will comply with the spirit of the law. The exception will be the individu-
al(s) who circumvent the ordinance by continually moving the vehicle, but leaving it parked at
their residence on the street.
I recommend the following language be used in revising the Code:
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the owner of a recreational vehicle may park such
vehicle on a city street for a period not to exceed one (J) day in a calendar month.
For purposes of this ordinance, it shall be prima facia evidence that a recreational
vehicle has been parked for a period of one (1) day on a public street if a Schertz
police officer observes the vehicle, marks the vehicles position and twenty-four
hours later the vehicle has not moved.
s 18-91

in front of a commercial establishment. This shall not restrict
the parking of a commercial vehicle for the purpose of loading
and unloading. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the owner of a
recreational vehicle may park such vehicle on a city street for a
period not to exceed three (3) days in a calendar month.
(c) No vehicle or auxiliary system of a vehicle left running

8:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m.
