This ordinance would extend the no-semi-truck-parking tow zone on the south side of West Bryn Mawr Avenue so it covers both sides of the street from North Pulaski Road to North Spalding Avenue.

Who it affects

• Semi truck drivers and owners: They could no longer park semi trucks on either side of West Bryn Mawr Avenue between North Pulaski Road and North Spalding Avenue without risking a tow.
• Residents living along West Bryn Mawr Avenue: The south side of their block, which used to have the rule only on part of it, would now be covered by the semi truck parking ban along its full length.
• Businesses that use or receive semi trucks on this stretch: Their trucks would not be able to park on the full south side of this section of Bryn Mawr Avenue.
• 39th Ward residents: The tow zone in their ward would cover a longer section of street.

What changes

• Semi trucks could not park on either the north or south side of West Bryn Mawr Avenue from North Pulaski Road to North Spalding Avenue.
• Before, the south side ban started 750 feet east of North Pulaski Road; now it would start right at North Pulaski Road.
• Semi trucks parked in this zone could be towed.
