Questions Legality

However, not everyone
pra the proposal. David
Lawall of Bollingwood Rd., a
street adjacent to Cameron
Lane, complained that people
not allowed to park on
Cameron Lane would begin
parking on Bollingwood Rd.
"Why can't this plan be
implemented as far west as
Alderman Rd?" Mr. Lawall
asked.

Another question raised by
Mr. Lawall was the legal right
of a resident to restrict parking
in front of his property.

City Attorney Roger Wiley
replied that residents do have a
legitimate if not legal interest
in the road in front of their
house, and that the city can
make regulations governing
parking on these roads.

There will be a second
reading of the proposal at next
City Council meeting this
Monday at which time the final
vote will be taken.
