WHEREAS, Winter Services has offered to plow that portion of South 116th Street in order to allow parking on South 116th Street for its employees during declared snow emergencies; and,

 

WHEREAS, Winter Services has offered to pay for the cost of making, erecting, maintaining, and replacing the parking permitted during snow emergency signs on the designated portion of South 116th Street; and,

 

WHEREAS, it is deemed to be in the City’s interest to allow parking on the designated portion of South 116th Street during snow emergencies in order to accommodate Winter Service’s restricted parking situation where Winter Services agrees to assume responsibility for the snow plowing operations on that portion of the street and pay for all costs associated with posting and maintaining the parking signs.
