So ordered turning to page three. Our final direct
introduction is an ordinance amending Municipal Code
section, 948-2050 and Associated means without Provisions
regarding requirements for Intercity buses and penalties
for non-compliance introduced by Mary Townson.
We have different Levine Deputy Corporation counsel for the
from the Department of Law present to speak on the
ordinance as well as Tom Carney Commissioner of Chicago
Department of Transportation Thomas, Doran Chief assistant
Corporation counsel Legal Information and prosecution
division Department of Law.
Matthew lanyard manager of Emergency Management Services
office of emergency management and communication. Thank
you. Good morning, Sharon members, Jeff Levine dy-corp
council department of law on November 16th the city council
passed an ordinance that creates a if you will an approval
requirement for Intercity buses for the sole purpose of
creating predictability and orderliness as far as one such
buses will be arriving in the city. There's no fee
associated with it. It's simply a requirement that they
notify the city ahead of time when they're coming and to
what location as I said that was passed on the 16th since
that time there has proven.
Your lack of compliance with that requirement. And so this
ordinance simply adds an impoundment.
Option as a way to better encourage compliance impoundment
is a fairly common remedy in the municipal code for other
similar Vehicles related violations, and so I would simply
close by asking for a favorable recommendation from the
committee. Thank you.
This is a matter of minor correction. Mr. Enoch is not with
us. We actually have Glenn Lyman deputy director at oumc.
Thank you very much Jeff. Does anyone have any questions
concerning this ordinance?
If I were present when this would be C PD would be
all riding the citations.
Yes or no more.
Okay, so walk me through this so we got our drop site
location, right?
There we have the location which is where the Maxwell
Street absolutely staging area whatever we called it and
then but if the bus do not stop there and they say they
drop off wherever location.
They have to get the CPD with somebody had to be there to
catch them. Right if I do I will we know when when they
come so I don't cuz if I come in the middle of the night
and I just take him to You Know A District or something
like that or not, even the district just somewhere.. If
that if that happens it would be dependent on CPD being you
being able to get there. This is there also have been
situations where they have been coming to the drop site,
but outside of allowed hours and without providing any
heads up to the city and I'm doing that would be impounded
Bowl as well. Okay, but in some cases
they may get away. Yes, although
if the bus information is recorded on a camera the current
ordinance enables us to prepare and mail a citation to the
company and that enables us to seek the fine. That's in the
Ordnance. Okay, but nothing is said of the impoundment and
I have another question, but that's okay. I just had a
brain cramp. Thank you.
Thank you very much. Older men more. Do we have any further
questions?
In that case. May I have a motion to?
Got a cramp is only a moment. So there's no
arrest made is it just take the bus and impound the bus,
but the drivers themselves is not detained or anything like
that, correct? Thank you. Thank you, sir.
Sing no further questions may have a motion to recommend
approval of item one on page 3 by the same roll call vote
as was applied to determine quorum.
Alderperson Martin sew moves hearing no objections so
ordered. Thank you very much. Thank you.
Let us now turn to page is four and five of the recommended
portion of the agenda. Can I have a motion to recommend
approval of all recommended ordinances on pages 4 and 5 by
the same roll call vote as was applied to determine quorum.
So I moved all the person Yancey hearing no objections so
ordered.
Now we will move two pages 6 through 9 of the agenda with
your items that receive no recommendation from City
departments. These ordinances were submitted as overrides
are on the agenda at the request of the older person or do
not require departmental approval with that. May I have a
motion to recommend approval of all ordinances on pages 6
through 9 to be passed without a departmental
recommendation by the same roll call vote as was applied to
determine Quorum ottoman Chico. So moves hearing no
objections so ordered we will report these items are at the
next regularly scheduled city council meeting with there
being no further business before the committee may have a
motion to adjourn.
I'll give that one to older person cannot send all the
person system. So moves all those in favor signify by
saying I
so be it we are adjourned. Thank you very much.
