She said the City worker explained the signs were up many years ago but had disappeared, so they came out to put them back up. She asked her neighbors about it and found the signs were put up when kids would park and party by the river. The neighborhood no longer has this issue, and she finds no purpose for the no parking signs. She asked that the signs be removed or at least removed from one side of the street. Mayor Bukkila asked Ms. Quigley to pass the information to City Administrator Dickinson. Mr. Dickinson stated the City would evaluate why the signs were originally put up. He said it may be because of the classification of the street or a resolution was put in place declaring no parking. He stated staff will research the issue and will follow up with the resident.
