Discussion: Councilor Ingalls explained in response to some resident’s concerns  
regarding safety pertaining to a large commercial tow truck/flatbed that was parked  
on a residential street the LUPPW Committee discussed the appropriate mechanism  
to address the issue at their May 2, 2022 meeting.  
Councilor Ingalls went on to state that the LUPPW Committee worked with Land  
Use Director Juliet Hodge to draft the proposed Ordinance dated June 8, 2022 as  
presented this evening.  
The Administration Committee reviewed the proposed Ordinance and agreed that it  
was well written and would address the safety issues that were of concern.  
Councilor Irwin suggested that rather state the Fines in the Ordinance itself that they  
put the Fines in an Appendix, as they have done for other Ordinances that have a fee  
schedule, so that if they want to make a change to the fines they would not need to go  
thru the process to amend the Ordinance itself.  
The Administration Committee agreed to move the Fee Schedule to an Appendix as a  
friendly amendment” as noted above.  
Councilor Ingalls noted the draft Ordinance the Administration Committee would be  
forwarding to the Town Council for consideration would be dated September 28,  
2022.
