<br />C. The City Council hereby desires to adopt a citywide preferential parking <br />program pursuant to California Vehicle Code Section 22507. The <br />preferential parking program shall be referred to as the vending permit <br />parking district. <br /> <br />D. The parking restrictions imposed pursuant to the Santa Ana Municipal <br />Code, Chapter 36, Article XI, and this Ordinance shall apply to any <br />vending permit parking area so designated by appropriate signage. <br /> <br />E. The executive director of the planning and building agency or his designee <br />is hereby authorized by this ordinance to select appropriate vending <br />permit parking locations and to establish up to 150 individual vending <br />permit parking districts within the City of Santa Ana. Each individual <br />vending permit parking district shall only be large enough to accommodate <br />one vending vehicle. <br /> <br />F. All vending vehicles parked in a permit parking district shall be subject to <br />the Santa Ana Municipal Code, with the exception of the time limits <br />established in Section 36-57. <br /> <br />G. No person shall park any vehicle at any time on any portion of any street <br />within the citywide vending permit parking district which signs have been <br />erected indicating the application of permit parking restrictions, except <br />persons and vehicles exempted from such parking restrictions. The signs <br />may provide for the towing of vehicles parked in violation of the parking <br />restrictions. <br /> <br />H. The executive director of the planning and building agency is authorized to <br />promulgate eligibility criteria for the issuance of vending parking permits to <br />vendors, and to issue or deny such permits in accordance therewith; and <br />to establish written rules for the vending permit parking districts. Such <br />rules shall be designed to minimize the impacts upon the residential <br />neighborhoods. Such impacts include but are not limited to: increased <br />traffic, pedestrian congestion, parking shortages, litter accumulation and <br />damage to the public parkways. Such rules may be revised from time to <br />time, as circumstances require. <br /> <br />Section 11. The executive director of the planning and building agency on his <br />own authority and at his sole and absolute discretion may establish a Vending Permit <br />Parking Advisory Committee to assist in the selection of the 150 individual Vending <br />Permit Parking Districts and/or the implementation of this ordinance. <br /> <br />Section 12. In adopting the amendments set forth in Sections 1 through 9 <br />above, the City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines and declares <br />as follows: <br /> <br />A. Vending vehicles within the City of Santa Ana present public safety and <br />welfare concerns to the residents of Santa Ana, especially the children. <br /> <br />B. California Vehicle Code Section 22455(b) permits cities to adopt additional <br />requirements for vending vehicles for public safety. <br /> <br />Ordinance No. NS-2695 <br />Page 6 of9 <br /> <br />WS50B-9 <br />
